I recently built my first PC. Here is my build.

This build has been a complete success.. Until I downloaded Battlefield 4, after about 20 minutes of playing, my computer shut off with the error message WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR. So I did some research, obviously there is something wrong with my hardware.
I downloaded prime95 and that shut my computer down... But that still doesn't pinpoint what is wrong.
I downloaded memtest86, and everything was fine there.
I downloaded Furmark, and everything was fine there.
I am thinking it's an overheating issue because I downloaded Speccy so I could see the temperature of all of my parts. When I run prime95, my CPU temp rises to 95C and then shuts down. Maybe it could be the power suppy? Not sure.
I shut my computer off, and I took the CPU heat-sink off and looked at the thermal paste, all good there. I re-attached the heat-sink and made sure that it was in correctly, all good there. However I am still getting that blue screen with said error message. I asked my friends and they said that the one PC fan I have and the CPU fan should be sufficient so I am not sure what is going on.
If anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you all!
