Jun 27, 2021 at 18:13 comment added Feri Carnu I got the idea to plug the power leds to the speaker pins. The led turns on quickly five times without the GPU, but doesn't blink at all without it. On the Gigabyte website it says that 5 short beeps mean CPU error, without any other explanations.
Jun 27, 2021 at 16:32 comment added JW0914 The manual doesn't list the troubleshooting info most motherboard manuals have (where POST error codes would be listed). Since CMOS was cleared, it doesn't seem likely the initial & continuing issue is due to the same cause. Try reseating all components & cables again (prior to doing so, fully disconnect power, remove CMOS battery, and discharge CMOS capacitors by shorting them - pg. 18 #14 - battery can be re-inserted once done, however wait until reseating is done) and if POST still fails, contact tech supprt
Jun 27, 2021 at 16:14 comment added Feri Carnu I read the manual. It says that it should beep once if there are no issues
Jun 27, 2021 at 16:00 comment added Feri Carnu The motherboard doesn't have one of those speakers. I plugged I one from a very old pc, but it doesn't boot.
Jun 27, 2021 at 15:57 comment added JW0914 If a motherboard fails POST, it will output either a series of beeps or LED flashes to communicate what test during POST is failing - reference the motherboard's manual =]

Jun 27, 2021 at 15:55 comment added Feri Carnu There are no LEDs on the motherboard. I meant that the keyboard lights turn on and off, meaning that the system might power on and off continously. And there is nothing about lights in the manual anyways, since they don't exist.
Jun 27, 2021 at 15:53 comment added JW0914 Reference your motherboard's manual, which will tell you what the number of LED flashes means. CSM [Legacy] Mode should never be enabled, as its sole purpose was to support distros that didn't support EFI boot circa <2017, emulating BIOS' 16bit architecture within a 32bit environment, and it will cause performance degradation (boot times increase, GPT can't be used, etc.).
