Okay, so I have an Intel X38 DX38BT Motherboard which I have been using since 2008. When playing games, my Motherboard beeps and it can't be the heat since it run at ~ 75 C degrees which isn't that bad for playing games on ultra. So what is it. By the way I checked the beep codes of my Motherboard and none of them have the same sequence. It beeps 6 times continuously and if I don't exit the game while beeping, it beeps much longer. Also it is the same beep all the time. So, please help me out here. Thanks.

Edit: It beeps after 10-20 mins of gaming (I only game for 40-50 mins but it's annoying and I get scared)

CPU: Core 2 Quad Q9550
GPU: GTX 760 Windforce 3X 2 GB
MOBO: Intel DX38BT
Ram: 8 GB DDR3 @ 1.3ghz Ripjaws X (4 Sticks of 2 GB)

read my post above as I posted a link there but as this temp problem started with the new heatsink fan assembly then try reseating it.

For temps on load 75 degrees C is average close to good. I stress tested it and the highest it went was 74 degrees C which is decent. Even my old intel fan was the same. It was on 55-60 on idle and 80 on load so I upgraded and it decreased by 5-10 degrees C. I've read other forums that 75 degrees C isn't bad. On idle forums say it's a little warm but that's because of my room. It's pretty damn hot in my room. It can't be temp problem since my dad had this PC before and while editing it would happen. Since I never tried out the PC before I wouldn't have found out. Also it may be the 12V rails being 18A only which results in 216 watts for my GPU. So I'm guessing it's the power supply again in this issue as my last thread was about my 2008 PSU and it's rails.
