    5 beeps, new monitor

    After plugging my new monitor (Mag274qrf-qd) I’m getting 5 beeps and no display for ~10s. I’ve noticed that if i start monitor first and then pc I don’t have this issue. Should I be worried anyway?
    I’m using DP 1.2a cable.
    GPU: Gigabyte 3060ti gaming pro 8gb oc lhr

    Can I ask what you mean by “start the monitor first”

    A monitor should always become active before the PC else the GPU will not be able to be tested as part of the power on self test (POST) resulting in you getting five error beeps.

      Being that the OP has revisited the forum, liked the reply #2 but not replied themselves we will mark this thread as having been answered rather than leave it hanging.
