This motherboard, when you choose to reboot from windows 7, it will close windows, reboot, POST, reboot itself, POST again, and finally boot into windows.
Also, every time it reboots, it seems to cut off its own power for about 3 seconds as if i had hit the power switch, but it does it to itself, and then powers back up after those 3 seconds. Is it broken or just annoying as hell??
i have the same MB, "i solved" tripple channel no works, just Dual channel, :-(

I know this is a old post but its quite obvious whats wrong. If you would just read what the bios is telling you. It was a problem with the settings in the bios. I wont go into detail because you probably already fixed it or RMA'd it. I myself just got this board as my gigabyte X58 USB3 was damaged by my pet.lol

My GA-X58A-UD3R had the same issue. I had Sli 570 setup. After a while however it will not boot up anymore.They replaced the mother board, and the 2nd one did it again... I had the Shop replace the Mother Board with an Asus Rampage 3 Extreme.
All Seems fine now ! i had to pay in the difference in price though. But Sabreooth will also fix this problem at same price...

@dangolo Mine was bad too, Squeeling noises from the cpu or chipsets, black screen sata crashes, and then it would not boot without a legacy keyboard to click some options when it said over voltage.

@dangolo yh PSU sounds good, try using a different one tho, Enermax in my opinion is the best, very silent, easy installation, doesn`t produces as much heat as others do

@LightBringerize PSU is a Seasonic SS-850HT, retails for about $120, has 0 negative reviews, is more than adequate for this system, and I have 4 of them feeding the Asus Sabertooth X58 workstations without a single hiccup. Suffice to say, the PSU is innocent.
