With horrible pc parts price I bought this Office PC with a Asus Prime B360M-K to upgrade as a gaming pc but the chiniese GTX 1650 Low profile I bought does not boot sometimes. It gives 1 long beep and 3 short beeps gap and another beep. card fan does spin all the time.

    Took a photo at the PSU here. It is 400W, which I think should be enough, especially when the CPU connection only need 4 pin

      Give us a close up of your motherboard here.

      Also, try booting without the optical drive plugged into anything. It’s useless anyway and it might be just enough of a difference in power to get you booted reliably. If that does work though, I wouldn’t be surprised if you see crashes when you throw a graphics workload at your card and it tries to draw its full power.
