New PC concerns

[Wolfram74]

Hello I just bought new PC from PC Specialist (build bellow).

I am really happy with it so far, however I have 2 concerns at the moment.

1.My PC has this beep noise when i start it up, I googled the signal meanings but cant quite understand what it is. (LINK HERE) skip to 16 seconds.

2. Although PC has liquid cooled CPU, it does not have any case fans (on top or at the back) (image attached). Now when i check sensors temp - looks quite ok, playing NFS HEAT some parts goes up to 60C-80C case it self gets quite warm, which i guess is normal? My question here is weather should I look to get some case fans installed at all?

Many thanks for your support!

Most PCs beep when you turn them on as it is a signal from the motherboard to say that everything hardware-wise has checked out and the system will continue booting...if it beeps more than once then it indicates a problem.

Yes, it's the POST beep. It's there to tell you the PC completed the POST process ok.

Thank you, however there are 4 more beeps after that 1 initial beep. If you see the video link attached and forward to 16 sec, you will hear it

As to cooling, can't say I'm entirely surprised as that is not the best case for cooling....for a build your level, you would have wanted a more premium case. However, actual temps are okay depending on which bit it is...GPUs can handle into the low 80s max and CPUs can go quite high as well. If it was me, I'd be looking to add a rear exhaust fan as well as a second front fan....won't fully solve the temps but it may be enough to bring them down a bit

Thank you!
I am quite new to building PC's

Not sure what to do now, i fell like i should send it back in and upgrade for bigger case with fans?
what case would you recomend?

many thanks

The beep codes represent a GPU issue, but it's actually quite common on some motherboards when the monitor is connected with an HDMI cable and the monitor is in standby when the PC powers on.

Try connecting a DP cable and boot again, see if the beeps go away.

Temps are all fine.

One long three short beeps i heard, isnt that something to do with the RAM?
Try powering off, including the PSU/socket on wall and take the RAM out and reinsert.

Edit:
Different per board and not as standardised as I thought...1 long 3 short is def GPU on your motherboard, not RAM

As for the case...
Fans for the cooler sit on its radiator, which will be inside the case attached to the roof normally.
I dont think you will see the fans for it in that case... did no one help you with your build?

This makes sense, because of my HDMI, i noticed it sometimes does not beep, because monitor is already on.

Much appreciated !

I though I read enough info online. My bad, still not sure what to do, any recommendations?

Well, its already been built, so you cant really change the case lol.
I would look at getting 3600MHz RAM though, should never have gone for less than 3200MHz with the curernt AMD's they are much better with higher frequencies.
