Hiya,

 

Motherboard: Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite

GPU: Gigabyte RTX 3080 Vision OC

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700x
PSU: Enermax 750W Revolution DF

 

So, I've upgraded my PSU and installed my new Gigabyte RTX 3080 Vision OC, and am now getting a postcode on boot. I have yet to find what the post code means.

The post code is: three really short quick beeps, a small pause, and a single beep (The same one as a normal boot).

Despite the post code, it does actually boot into windows.

 

Lastly, my PSU is a modular Enermax 750W Revolution DF, do I use one PCI-E cable that comes from the PSU's PCI-E port (35A) and splits into two to put into the GPU.

Or do I use two separate cables, and then use one of each for the GPU, letting half of them dangle?

Can someone help me?

You should just be fine with using one cable (I think they would be on the same rail anyway so it wouldn't matter, but take this with a grain of salt I'm not an expert on PSUs).

 

Gigabyte does have fanstop on a lot of their GPUs, so I'd guess that's what that is. 

The b550 aorus elite doesn't mention post codes in the manual, but if you boot I'm not quite sure what the problem would be.
