Salam guys!

I bought my pc about a month ago. Everything is working fine except that sometimes when i start my pc, it gives a single Beep sound and then restarts. It doesn't show any error or on monitor. Attached link shows the specs of my pc
. Plus my power supply is a PowerMan brand of 400 W. I use 2 RAMS of 8GB DDR3 1333Mhz.

I don't know why my pc does that. I would be really thankful to you if you let me know what's causing this beep and how can i solve it. Would like to mention it again that it does that sometimes, not everytime.

Single beep sometime indicates video card issue.
Bring out GPU from PCIe, clean it up and then reinsert; observe the behavior.

3 Beeps are for Memory. You need to cross check the components one by one and breakdown to real culprit.
Don't forget to ensure BIOS health and temp alarming options aren't activated.

I have cleaned the GPU and inserted it back, will check the pc behavior now. Also, what do you mean by "BIOS health and temp alarming options aren't activated?"

In case, you have set thermal limits and activating sound on breaching the thermal limits. But that's rear happening, just in case, restore the Default BIOS to clear out any possible intervention.

Done. haven't heard any sound yet. Will keep checking the behaviour of pc for a couple of days to see if anything else causes the same beep.

Sounds like a connectivity issue. Re insert your rams/gpu. And do check you PSU's ampere rating on +12V rail. Rx 550 requires 16A according to here
PSU's ampere rating is fine:
+12v1 >> 18A
+12V2 >> 16A

Ive changed my ram/gpu and checking pc performance now.
