If anything, this sounds like a power supply problem, it just might be the power supply has some bugs. I would try returning your power supply, get a new one, and if it still does it. Then there's a chance it could be a problem with your mobo.
I'd definitely go for a higher power supply. I made sure to get a 550w and I'm running a geforce 6800 ultra. How many power cords go into the dual 7950s?
Maybe a power supply issue. Before turning on your computer, remove the power cord and put your thumb on the ground to drain the caps. If it works, your capacitors probably aren't draining right and you need to RMA your PS.
I agree with the power supply and battery options. I've seen computers have weird drive activity because the CMOS battery died. I've also been seeing a lot of power supplies breaking down lately (not just dying) and causing odd problems.

I got the newest bios, 0305. Valias, the card is using PCI-E power connectors, not molex plugs. How can I tell what sequence they are in the PSU, though?
So, my new rig is giving me headaches now. When I leave my PC off for an extended period (overnight for example) and I go to turn it on, it doesn't quite work. When you turn on a PC, normally everything revs up for about 1-2 seconds tops, then it revs down, and you get the POST beep. Mine isn't reving down though, or…
