From cold boot the system will turn-on for about 2 seconds then power-off for 3-5 second then it will properly turn-on as normal. Please note the problem only happens when the system is overclocked, also when mildly overclocked.

I am not sure if it was board itself or something else was wrong. I have tried 3diffferent PSUs, first one was Antec Neo 550, then Antec Earhwatts 650 and finally Topower 950w.

Here's the system specs:

Maximus II Formula bios 2202
Q9550
ATI4870
2x2GB Corsair Dominator
2x30GB OCZ Vertex in RAID 0
Topower 950W PSU
Swiftech MCP655 pump and swiftechs blocks.(Works perfectly on my R2E).
Window 7 HP x64

Thanks in advance!!!
Not doing that for me with my Q9650 @ 4050mhz. Only does that if my overclock failed, to load the bios' defaults. I would try a CMOS clear (the button at the back of your case, on the I/O plate and manually re-enter your overclock settings. Try with a mild overclock first (100mhz or so).
