Hi all new here just built a new cpu not the greatest but decent anyway the mobo is a socket 1155 MSI H67MA-E35. When I start up the cpu there's 3 short fast beeps and then a normal one? Once I start cpu works fine besides those beeps any Ideas what it could be or any have beep codes for it?

Did you try without the graphics adapter? The board can use the CPU-integrated GPU, you can try this first. You can disable the "fancy" boot screen and look if the plain-text screen displays any errors.
The beep codes are dependent on the BIOS vendor. I've seen boards that signal 1x long, 3x short for a graphics adapter error, but not the other way around.
 
Yeah I already reset the gfx card and memory modules still does it. Guess well just be happy for now cause all runs ok still boots to windows 7 64 bit thanks all. Just a little worried down the road of something failing.
