I also bought a asus maximus v formula mb that's doing pretty much the same thing this mother board is doing it won't boot into the bios an keeps restarting. I had the system up an running on the maximus V formula but i put a portable hd on the computer an in all the sudden wouldn't even boot into the bios. Justrestart over an over.
 
random restarts especially ones that happen in the bios usually point to a few usually suspects.
1. Check the motherboard standoffs. Make sure you have them where they are needed and that any extras are removed.

2. Check the RAM. Try with only 1 stick, make sure to you test with every stick of RAM.

3. The fact that you have tested and failed with two motherboards makes a faulty PSU the most likely culprit. You'll have to test with a different PSU to verify.
