I've been having issue recently, and tons of them.
I've had events telling me that my windows 7 data store is corrupt which could be a sing of a faulty hardware.
I've been having crashes out of games "not installed on the ssd"
Services have been crashing out randomly,
Steam has been having dll errors,
My msi afterburner is showing my gpu stats at 0 which definatly isn't correct.
Firefox has been crashing,
I've had esent and vss errors in event log.
Could all this point to a fault ssd?
Please help me, thank you in dad acne.

Well I'm going through process of elimination at the moment, just done a gpu test after having a "gpu out of vid ram" error in warframe, using furmark running standard 10 min tests, 2 of them. No issues, no artefacts, no overheat, so that means gpu and psu should be fine.
Personly I'd say a mobo error would just be a basic shut down and no more.

I did add 2 sticks of unmatched 2gb ram dimms, and it's only since then I've had tons of issues. So that is high on my cause list as well as the ssd.
I didn't even think of sata / cable errors.

Oh I see, I have just up stalled 2 gbs of unmatched ram after a bsod on a fresh install of windows. I've only been having issues really since I installed those 2gbs of memory.
Hopefully it may stabilise my system.
