Okay, so I have just installed a 970 in my computer, and it beeped a couple of times when I first started it up, but hasn't since.

However, when I go into games (Fallout 4 was my first test) occasionally I'll get a fairly long beep from my computer, almost at random, while I am playing.

I just took out a GTX 750 as my old card.

Motherboard: Gigabyte Z87x (not positive which exact model at the moment)
CPU: Intel i5-4670k
RAM: 12GB of Corsair RAM (Again, not positive of model atm)
PSU: Rosewill HIVE 750W

What could be going on?

Sorry it took me so long to reply. After some investigation, I found that it was due to the CPU getting hot. I think I need a case that'll have better airflow with this card, or at least a better cpu cooler. Something about having this card installed is causing my CPU to overheat, but I haven't figured that part out yet.
