Computer randomly beeping

[Tactical Fried Chicken]

My PC i built over an year ago recently started beeping randomly (1 beep random beep at a random time, from every minute to every couple hours) after i installed windows 10 pro 64-bit. The beep is about a second long and comes from motherboards speaker. Windows has said couple times that i need to backup since my HDD is dying but every test in HD tune Pro said everything is okay.

Have you tried reseating your RAM?

I would check your motherboards manual...usually they will have a list of post codes (beeps)

usualy its your motherboard thermals , giving out some warnings , had mine do the same when i had 8350 and just unplugged the speaker out cuz it was getting annoying even tho everything else was fine (checked with Aida64 the graphs) and even did a RMA and they said it was fine

Turns out for some reason my cpu while idle is over the normal temperature, while inspecting CPU fan i noticed the heatsink is dusty af, i probably missed it when i last cleaned my pc
