Its definitely a Hardware problem.

Narrowing it down will take a little work.

If you have any USB devices, remove those first.
Try reseating the Ram and CPU.

If that doesn't help, and you have a spare drive (any size will do) to rule out
the Hard drive.

Then, if you still have not found the problem, you will need to remove components
one at a time until you find the culprit.

I notice that your overclocking your system too , I have seen that happen when overclocking too much but if yours has been running fine then check your cpu and heatsink/fan and also your thermal grease hasn't detoriarated.

Try these:

1. Check whether all the cables and expansion cards make proper contact
2. Stop Overclocking
3. Enter CMOS and enable ?Reset Configuration Data? (also known as ?Force Update ESCD?)
4. Clear CMOS
5. Flash BIOS + Clear CMOS + Reset Configuration Data
