I've had my new Sandybridge build for a few days now, and I've been overclocking it, however I've got a small problem...
Whenever I turn the PC on, my gfx card gives no output, so I have to turn the PC off, then on again, this time it works. However, during boot up, it says my Overclocked failed, and to press F1 to enter the bios, and re-enter my OC settings. I press F1, but all my settings are still there, so I just save the BIOS, and restart, PC starts fine now.
Have I got a faulty component, or is it just a BIOS bug?
Specs:
Asus P8P67 PRO mobo
2500k @ 4.5GHz
2x4GB Corsair XMS3 1600MHzC9
XFX 6950
This happens every single time I start the PC up, however at these same settings, my PC runs prime95 fine for 13hours, and passes 20 runs of IBT.

. What is your overclock settings in the BIOS?
