I have encountered the Asus surge protection feature to glitch after a short power blackout (lasted like 20 sec) It kept telling me there was a problem and the system shut down to protect itself. I measured the voltage from the wall socket, and everything was fine.

I reseted the bios and the warning never appeared again, and the system didn't shut down again.

mmm i did reset the bios ...and now its seems fine but i just check the power outlet with a watt meter , and under load i get over 1000 watt so  thats not surprise to me that the psu cant handle that load for a long time ,,,,but if i remember correctly when i got the 2 780 i just got above 600 watt at stock when i gaming .....
