I just moved 11 hours across the country and to my dismay despite the utmost care in transporting my PC, it won't start up now upon arrival.
I've got an Asus Z390-p Motherboard, 2080 TI GPU, i-9700k CPU, 16gb of RAM, and Thermaltake ToughPower 750 W PSU
I took a video of the PC starting up and tying to post since sometimes seeing it helps.
But essentially, when I first tried to boot it up, it was doing this thing where it starts, I hear the watercoolers start kicking in, and then it turns off and tries to start again, over and over again in a 10 second loop. This has happened to me before, so I did the same thing I did last time: I reseated my RAM, reset my CMOS, and reseated my video card. I also checked all of the motherboard connections and made sure they were secure.
Tried booting it again, and then what happened in the video happened.
And that's what it's stuck on ever since. It starts booting, gets further than the boot-loop phase did, but before the part where it should post, it gives me a beep code: one long beep followed by 3 short beeps then a pause and another short beep. After that it just idles, the fans and RGB running but nothing detected on the monitor.
This system is less than a year old at this point so I'm pretty salty that it's having these issues and I really cannot afford to replace my GPU so please tell me it's something simple, save me Tom's Hardware you're my only hope!
