Long time lurker here and a hugeeee fan of these forums, ive learned so much.

I currently run an ATX build, built for gaming and i havent had any issues with it. Recently I swapped to a SSD and loaded my windows install and use my hdd as my D drive. I started getting blue screens and it ended up being a corrupted windows. So now everything is running fine.

However.
When i boot up ONLY from a cold boot, the PC will be on for a few seconds, then shut off, then turn itself back on, then shut off, then come back on and its fine. Sometimes it doesnt do it at all, sometimes it does it then after the bios it says "Overclocking failed etc". So it sends me to the bios where my settings are already set, i just hit exit set up and start windows and its fine?

It doesnt do the overclocking failure all the time, only sometimes.

My build:
mobo - ASUS P8P67 PRO (REV 3.1) LGA 1155 Intel P67 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel mobo
560 ti EVGA, factory stock overclocked.
i5 2500k factory overstocked to 3.4 ghz.
600w 12v 80+ bronze cx series corsair.
8 gigs of ram from corsair as well.

I did not tamper with any of the overclocking, it all came factory overclocked.

Some people have told me its a motherboard issue. Some people say PSU all the way.
So I ran HW monitor, here is the results

Any thoughts?
 
the error your seeing is the mb at cold post not setting the ram and cpu speed right. in the bios under ai tools make sure dram speed set to xmp profile. save and exit then see if the mb still does the reboot issue. if it does reset the mb bios to stock speeds then see if the error stops if it does go back in and reset your overclock.

So i hit delete and went in to the bios, but from there i looked around and didnt see anything to set dram speed? So im not sure how to do this.
