1 long beep 3 short beeps - GPU or other problem?

[kcooper99]

Hi everyone, I occasionally get the 1 long 3 short beep code. Sometimes if I reboot my computer it will work. Other times I need to power off the PSU and then it works fine. It only tends to happen when I am multi-tasking, like watching youtube and doing something else on my computer at the same time.

I just can't see my screen.

Specs:
16gb ram
fx6300 OCed with liquid cooler
ASUS ROG STRIX Radeon Rx 470 4GB OC Edition AMD
ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0 AM3+ AMD 970 (mobo)
corsair 750w
pny ssd
seagate hdd

Is this for sure a GPU problem or could it be a mobo problem? Let me know what you think the problem/solution is!

Thanks

did you check this beep code on your motherboard manual or maker .

For AWARD BIOS this is:
1 long, 3 short - Video card not detected (reseat video card) or bad video card.
