I have gotten it twice and wanted to know how i figure out what is causing it. I'm not, nor have I overclocked the PC, Its not lack of power cause it has a 1000w gold PSU. Any help? PC is well vented and has more fans and cooling then I would even think is needed for a system that does not OC.

Specs:
Windows 8, Not 8.1 cause that keeps crashing my games.
i5
Asus Max. Hero 6 MOBA
1000w Gold PSU
16gb Ram

Hiren`s Boot CD - http://www.hirensbootcd.org/download/
- download
- burn to CD/DVD
- Boot you PC from it
- start the Memtest86 - from the Hirens Boot Menu

The same goes to MHDD
- it`s under Dos Programs
- Hard Disk tools
- MHDD 4.6

Furmark - GPU test under WIndows - http://www.ozone3d.net/benchmarks/fur/
- download / install / run

that`s breef of the what you have to do the rest is google-ble.
