Question How to disable beep speaker Z790-P motherboard

[rcmcdee]

I just finished this build with the Asus Z790-P wifi D4 with i9-14900K CPU and Asus TUF Gaming RTX 4070 Ti Super graphics card. I updated the BIOS to 1645 and all seems to be working well in currently updated Windows 11. BUT - when I attempt to do a raytrace render in my CAD software the onboard speaker starts beeping after a few seconds then stays on till the render completes 15 or 20 seconds later. AI Suite 3 shows the CPU temps getting into the low 70c. The beep seems to start around 55c. This is hugely annoying.

Is there a way to change the threshold at which the warning starts or is there a way to disable the beep speaker?

You need to investigate more. It may be an incorrect setting OR it might be that your VRMs are overheating and you are not recognizing that. You should identify WHY you are getting a warning before disabling it.

That would be in the bios press the del key intermittently during power on to get into it and have a look around.
Should be something like that.
( if it is a temp monitor thing, it could be power or something else)
There is no way to disable the beeper from settings, at least that would be new to me.

How would I investigate more? Any particular software to go beyond what the AI Suite 3 shows?

Power limits exceeded?

What's your PSU brand and model?

Also check if Windows knows in event viewer as it's happening.

PSU = Seasonic PRIME GX-850, 850W 80+ Gold Is there anything on the PSU that would genreate a warning sound? I unplugged the MB speaker I installed and don't see anything that looks like anoter speaker on the MB.

Yes - Seconding @SyCoREAPER.

1) PSU info : make, model, wattage, age, condition (original to build, new, used , refurbished).

2) Check Event Viewer for error codes, warnings, or even informational events just before or at the time of the beeps.

However, it will be a bit easier if you start with Reliability History/Monitor.

Much more end user friendly and the timeline format may reveal some pattern.

No, that's to rule out insufficient power. 850w shouldn't plenty. Unplugging the speaker doesn't solve the underlying issue and ignoring itnvould lead te permanent damage if it's something serious.

Download HWMonintor, run Cinebench in Stress test mode amd watch the Temps amd report back after say a 45 minute run and same for something graphically demanding.

If it's not thermal the next step is to look at logs.
