Hi and welcome to the Gigabyte Forum.
It is not terribly clear but from what you have described I would hazzard a guess that it is a fan alarm from the motherboard. Have you checked all your fans are running at proper speed and thet the heatsink on the CPU is firmly fixed. The Noctua D-14 is a good heatsink and it does draw a lot of power for the fans so it is advisable to connect it directly to the PSU in which case you will need to disable the alarm for the CPU fan.
-
the Fan alarm was disabled from earlier.i had before an older Heatsink from Intel, but the same thing, beeping. And bought new one Noctua and nothing has been changed, after turning on the PC and boot up only beeps. i have no clue what can be?
btw tnx
-
I am almost certain that what you are hearing is an alarm. There are quite a few different ones that come from the motherboard so I would just suggest that you go through the BIOS until you track it down.
-
yes may be an alarm, i did checked out all one but the beeping wont stop. btw the beeping is quiet but make a high noice...
-
Try removing the buzzer from the FrontPanelConnector down at the bottom right hand corner of the motherboard and see if the noise stops. If it does it is definitely an alarm. If not then post back and we will try and trace it.
-
hey dude i couldnt locate any buzzer, can you be more specific. i searched out but no buzzer maybe is hidden somewhere??

It is possible then that you haven't fitted a buzzer/speaker but if that is the case where is this beeping coming from?
If you check you manual on page 31 you will see where you should have attached it.

well i do have all ready speaker connected on the motherboard but they are connected to the back panel. HD AUdio. i did disconnected it but nothing was changed, beeping continues. the source of beeping is somewhere sound bridge i cant locate it exactly, but when i am moving with the mouse,i can hear the noise mostly.its sound something like a load... i did disconnected the hard drives too, but nothing. Perhaps I should update new BIOS?
-
Have you looked at the page of the manual that I posted? That shows the speaker/buzzer connection that is by the Southbridge. The speakers you are talking about are totally different.
-
yes i did it, but i haven connected nothing because the chassis dont support such a connectors. or he must be connected somehow to avoid the issue?
-
If it is just a buzzer it is a tiny tubular shaped object with two wires coming out of it that connects to the two outside pins on the connection marked SPEAKER on the motherboard front panel header on the bottom right of the motherboard. The whole thing is only about 3 cm long and doesn't have to be fixed to the case like the old speakers.
-
YES you are at right :D as always
those days i will track the issue down by changing some devices, as memory and power supply, i read it in users manual, there is other chances for getting such a beeping, i have to discover it. i will post to you
btw tnx
-
The first thing I would check is in the BIOS all the alarm states for the fans etc.
-
hey i discovered the issue
this is that what i thought

Oh well I'm glad that you have discovered the cause of the noise. It was your description of it that threw me and I thought it was an actual beep sound. :-\
At least you know the fix now. ;)
-
i saw you did wrote some suggestions to avoid the issue, i did everything according to yours opinions and suggestions but nothing got changed :(
-
Hopefully now that the UD3R trials have gone well they will be moving on to the other motherboards with the fix. So just keep checking the forum for news.
-
hey i removed the motherboard from the chassis and all other components. and assembled all hardware on the bench at home the beeping has been gone, there is a lil bit but not so loud and deadly :) :o
-
Can you tell better now where the noise is coming from?
-
i was suprised
the power supply :o
its seems 750wats are not enough btw psu is 1 year old
-
I wouldn't think it is because the PSU is too small but it could be about the way it is supplying the power. PSUs that use multiple 12V rails can be more troublesome that single rail versions. I don't know what type yours is but that could be the problem. You will probably find if you can try it with a different PSU the noise will disappear.
