Hello. I am having trouble with my new build. Well, several build actually. I am building 5 computers. This is not my 1st build I have built several computers in the past.

The specs for all of the computers are:
Mobo - ASRock B460M Pro4 Micro ATX LGA1200 Motherboard
CPU - Intel Core i5-10400F 2.9 GHz 6-Core Processor
RAM - Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory
Storage - Samsung 970 Evo 500 GB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive
Case - Rosewill FBM-X2 MicroATX Mini Tower Case
Power Supply - Power Supply 600W with ECO Mode, 80+ Bronze Certified, GAMEMAX VP-600

I am having the same problem with each of the 5 computers that I am building. I am getting 5 short beeps. Usually indicating a problem with the CPU. But the thing is that it is happening with all 5 which makes me think that it might be some sort of compatibility issue.

I have tried several things I have switched the ram in all possible combinations in 1 of the computers and have tried plugging in a GPU from a working computer but nothing seems to change. I have also taken out the CMOS battery and put it back in and reseted 2 of the CPUs as well. I am running out of ideas and don't know what else to try

Does anyone else have any suggestions£
Thank you for your time.
