Loud Beep

[KaosDevice]

I get a loud continuous beep when playing the game. I checked the CPU temp and it is around 74c and the fan is running. It is only for the game, if I tab out it stops immediately, even if the game is still running. It is very weird. Any advice?

I am having the same issue. For me turning off my MSI Afterburner OC helped. It beeps less often and usually ends on its own after a few seconds.

Update: Turned off EasyTune CPU OC as well. Been 45 min no beeping. Seems to be cause by overclocking.

Loud beeping usually means BIOS warning message. So it has something to do with your motherboard and likely CPU.
I would generally advise not to overclock under this game. Preferably under (GPUwise.)

Trust the mainboard and start dusting.

Overclocking is never good with modern games which comes with portability features.

Turning off any OC settings has helped greatly, but playing for several hours today started again.

Its weird cause its only with Baldur's Gate 3. I can play Cyberpunk, Doom Eternal, or anything else it does not happen. As soon as the game is no longer in focus the beep stops.

If was CPU and motherboard issue wouldn't happen in other situations?

No. Different software have different demands on the PC. Like vaccines cannot create autoimmune disorders, but they can awaken then if they are already there dormant.

Check whether changing between Vulkan and Direct X helps and run the game always in windowed mode plus Borderless Gaming (Freeware at GitHub).

I just got an Alienware Aurora 16 with a NVidia GTX 4070 and 32 GB's of memory and when I play BG3 I will get the continued tone also. My mb is clean and I have the 1000 watt power supply so I don't think power is the problem. I am not overclocking the CPU.
