I recently upgraded my video card to a RTX 3070 (coming from a gtx970 if that could matter). The installation went smoothly, and my system seems completely stable as far as I can tell (gaming performance is about what I'd expect, passed some stress testing via OCCT and furmark).
However, as soon as I installed the graphics card and booted, my mobo is now giving me a beep code error after the post beep (beeps once as usual when posting, but now followed by 4 fast error beeps). Researching I think that this beep code is general hardware failure, so I had been assuming it has something to do with my new graphics card, but nothing seems off and I don't see anything when entering the bios that alerts of a problem. I just updated to the most recent bios on offer for my mobo and that did not solve the issue either.
There doesn't appear to be any issues at all once the pc boots into windows, but it is annoying to have these beep errors every time I boot. Does anybody have any idea on what could he causing the issue, or any troubleshooting advice?
My system specs are as follows, please let me know if there is any further info I can provide:
CPU: i7-4790k (overclocked to 4.6GHz @ 1.25V)
Mobo: Asus Z97-A/USB3.1
RAM: 16GB Patriot DDR3@1866MHz
Boot drive: Samsung 860 Evo 500GB
