i"m not quite sure if this is the place to post this but i really need help with my computer. ever since i installed a new cpu, corsair water cooler and graphics card i have been having an absurd amount of issues. When i look at the event log at what may have caused the shutdown it always says 100% Kernel-power error id 41. to me this is jibberish and when i google it, it seems to have many different causes. so i guess ill go on to list what ive tried and hasnt worked. i reinstalled windows 8 and updated to 8.1, i made sure all of my drivers were updated, i ran driver verifier and it said my gpu driver was bad so i uninstalled and reinstalled it. i turned off windows 8 fast startup, and i updated my bios for the new cpu support. any help would be greatly appreciated and if any more information from me is required just tell me.

Apevia 700 watt power supply is Not known for being a good quality power supply, go with a Seasonic, Corsair, or Antec power supply, my first choice would be a Seasonic with 700 watts of power, skimpping on power supplies is the worst you can do to a system.
