How are you installing windows? maybe your CD or iso is bad? Maybe try downloading a fresh iso and making a bootable pendrive?
I would also take the processor out and reseat it and check socket pins are all OK...

Hmmm just noticed the RAM 2x16GB....is that two separate kits of memory? If so I would split then up by serial number and try this with only one kit or maybe one stick in the recommended slot at F5 defaults...

BIOS version? From perusing the net, it looks like a lot of people had similar as well as various other strange problems with version 1007.
CMOS battery starting to go bad can cause some bizarre behaviors sometimes (other than the usual suspect of the computer's clock not keeping correct time). Quick, easy and cheap to check.
It wouldn't hurt to go ahead and initiate the RMA process with ASUS. You can always cancel if you figure out a solution to the problem.
I sympathize, but I'm all out of ideas for now.

Quick update: after two trips through the RMA process ASUS has failed to fix my motherboard.
I've spent several hundred more dollars on new components for my system trying to isolate the problem. I have returned nearly every component of this system to the manufacturers with the exception of the Intel Processor, Corsair power supply, and ASUS graphic card. Those three haven't gone back because the testing I've done has revealed no cause to be concerned with them.
After all this testing and outright replacement there has nothing left of my system that can be the issue. Yet after the most recent return of the motherboard I re-assembled the system (on a anti-static mat), powered it up, and was greeted with the same blue screen errors once I tried re-installing Windows.
I get no more detail from ASUS about what they've fixed apart from saying a "component has been replaced". I now find myself so absolutely frustrated with this entire business because I thought I was buying a good product from a good company and I'm beginning to seriously second guess that choice. Not to mention the fact that it's now been well over 60 days since the failure.
I've logged another ticket with ASUS requesting a complete replacement of the board and I'm hopeful that after the time, effort, and money I've spent trying to resolve this issue that they might see it fit to make this right.
