What inverter is is specifically and it seems your tripping either the over-current protection or temperature warning, is the computer turning off when the beeping starts?

no it beeps only after sometimes of gaming (gta 5 ) it's a infosec ups system x1 ex-700 schuko/fr 

POWER 700va/360w

i have a gtx 960 

and a i7 2600k

Does that only occur during battery backup if it beeps continuously it's an overload, also with those specs and peripherals your coming very close to the maximum backup capacity of that unit

Your system should draw ~320 watts or so at most so it might be cutting it very close to that 360W capacity.

i asked so many times if that 360w capacity was worth somthing they always said no it is normale it is the VA that count i think they got me 

because only with the pc i use more than 300w and with normale use (max is 450w )

VA and watts are a bit different usually you want to look for the wattage first then the VA (apparent power) maximum capacity the UPS can handle with inductive loads.

 

This kinda explains it better it's hard to describe:
