Check your temperatures.

It could be that your power supply is faulty or not powerful enough.

temps all good hit 48 degrees max at 100% for over 2 hours
and 730w is enough for this system

Yes, in theory 730w is okay for this rig.
It doesn't stop the power supply from being faulty.

Most likely your PSU.But don't think for a minute that temps that are being displayed in any kind of software or even in BIOS are actual.Trust your senses always my friend.
