Hello everyone, first I would like to explain my issue the most accurate as I can, soo excuse me if i'm missing any information.

So, not even 1 month ago I bought a new video card, case and motherboard, when I receieved everything I built my PC, once that was done installed windows from a pirated source, but my key was LEGIT I just didn't have the cd, I installed everything on my SSD then my computer started freezing, forcing me to press down the power button in order to restart my system, then the more my system was crashing I though my SSD could have been the issue, because before the format, I was using my 1TB drive as a main drive and everything was running fine, Soo I formated again, using the same pirated version with my legit key, installed all my drivers, then the freezes came back.

I didn't know what was happening and started freaking out "is my gpu broken? is my motherboard faulty?" I didn't know what to think, Soo I switched my 770 for my old gpu, a 650 Ti, everything went fine for almost a day without a single freeze
then out of nowhere, my pc freeze, Soo I said, ok then its not my GPU, I installed back my 770 but this time used a different drivers, still froze. soo now i'm wondering what to do, I did a memtest and a prime95 test, all went fine without any errors.

soo the freezes kept coming, soo I found on microsoft website a legit version of windows, downloaded it, installed it on my usb, then I heard that my power supply could have been the issue (my old one a 725w cooler master) soo I bought a new power supply and fresh rams, formated again, with new parts, everything went fine for almost 2 days, then just tonight I crashed I think over 15 times in not even 1 hour, I don't know what to try anymore to be honest, i'm hopping to find help here

Thing's I tried
did memtest of 10hours
did a prime95 test
tried different GPU's
tried different nvidia drivers
bought new PSU
bought new ram
formated 3 times
Updated my bios
disabling C State Support, CPU C6 State support, CPU C3 State support and Enhance Halt State (C1E).
and at the very last, changing the voltage of my CPU to 1.190v

also the freezes seems to be happening mostly when i'm gaming, I watched animes for about half a day and no freezes, almost only when i'm gaming.

EDIT #1: Its the only thing I can find in event viewers, the only error that happaned 40 min before the the freeze occured

Event filter with query "SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA "Win32_Processor" AND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99" could not be reactivated in namespace "//./root/CIMV2" because of error 0x80041003. Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected.

Pirated software is often ladden with viruses and spyware. I dont know why you would download a pirated version when you can download the official MS version for free from MS's Digital River site.
I would wipe and format the drive completely to eliminate a possible rootkit, use another pc to download and create the install disk and then reinstall windows.

Feel free to create a new thread if you have the same problem with a real version of windows. I am closing this one.
