I just bought all the parts to build my pc. And I put it all together and everything went fine.
But when I turned it on (without OS and touching the bios yet) it beeped once (as per usual on pc startup) but after a few seconds it beeped 8 times. After another few seconds it beeped once. Im actually quite scared that I have a faulty component.
Thanks for any solutions :)

8 beeps signifies a video issue I believe. Remove and reseat your video card.

Are you using onboard video? If you hav no onboard video, and no video card, then yes, that would be your problem.

Running Amd fx6300 which has enough onboard graphics to run the pc normally. Or at least it should.

The FX-6300 does NOT have integrated graphics. You will need a GPU in order to use the system unless the motherboard itself has integrated graphics.
