One simple thing that can sometimes be the culprit. Replace the MOBO battery with a brand new one. Sometimes these boards have been sitting on a shelf for a long time before getting into the store and sold.
But it sounds more like you don't have things configured right either a jumper on the board, or in the CMOS settings.
You might have a board with a short in it.
Its fairly rare to have a fucked up CPU if you bought it from a reputable place. If you bought it from one of the discounters it could be a CPU which is labeled differently than what it really is.
Heat issues shouldn't cause a shutdown in a second like that if its powered up cold, so I don't think that its.
