Hi
The system began with issues, which initially appeared as an overclocking concern for the GPU. Over time it became unstable, requiring frequent reboots and failing to pass the POST test. Eventually it would boot but then crash without any BSOD, only stopping abruptly and rebooting. I removed the graphics card, reset the CMOS by jumping the motherboard, and kept enabling the integrated graphics for display purposes. After disconnecting all peripherals, cleaning contacts, and installing RAM one by one, the hardware eventually stabilized. I connected the SSD, HDDs, and GPU, which worked fine. Testing stability helped; temperatures remained normal, voltages consistent, and no overheating occurred. The BIOS updates were inconsistent—sometimes a fresh flash resolved problems, other times it reset repeatedly. Many 3D renders and Handbrake compressions passed, and the system ran smoothly enough for basic tasks. Occasionally, the Q-Code screen displayed corrupted characters, and the video showed random readings from the SSD, RAM, or GPU. The display sometimes lit up the GPU LED but stopped at the RAM or microcontroller. Eventually, after repeated failures, the system stopped responding in BIOS mode. In the video, a distorted audio clip of “doublé short piiiip” was heard, and the code indicated a RAM read error, though the crash occurred before any memory check.

So… what do you think: power supply unit, motherboard, or the 4770K chip?

Search for methods to burn memtest results onto a disc or flash drive, then test the system for any issues.
