I recently decided to upgrade my GPU to the NVIDIA 3070 as the one that came with the pc wasn't enough for me. Of course with this I also upgraded my PSU to a 750w, and that works just fine. However when I switch out my gpu to the new one the pc will not boot up and will simply do 3 long beeps then 3 short beeps 5 times. I made sure before that all my drivers were up to date. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi:
I don't know exactly what the beep code pattern means but in many circumstances when you install a non-HP video card, you have to go into the BIOS and disable secure boot.
See this link for the settings to change...

That would be the only suggestion I can offer.
