So I got a new GPU and installed it today. (GTX 970 to RTX 3070) and something I've never seen before is happening.
The PC gives me a post code of 4 fast beeps but continues to boot?
I haven't yet tried re-seating the RAM but all of it is detected in the BIOS and OS so I don't think that is the issue.
I'm running a Gigabyte Aorus B450 Elite.

That's bizarre.

Try re-seating RAM.

3 short Base 64K memory failure A memory failure has occurred in the first 64K of RAM. The RAM IC is probably bad. Hopefully you didn't short anything during GPU swap.

Can you run with one stick at the time to see if one of them is faulty? Can you try another RAM sticks? Perhaps you have another PC or a friend living close :-)
 
I am going to now but I mistook the number of beeps, its 4 and they're extremely fast before the standard POST complete beep
