Ran memtest for 13 hours and found no errors.
My specs are:
Amd 8350
Corsair 600w V2 builder series
MSI r9 270
8GB ram (1 crucial 4gb and 2 mushkkin 2x2 gb)
Asus m597 LE Mobo
3 Hdds (1 SSD 2 1 TB hdds)
5 case fans (kendoman deepcooler case)

Any ideas?

Odd random restarts generally are caused by overheating issues tyr checking if it does the same while just doing web surfing or any other thing also check if its not PSU related most people recommend Corsair as a great brand for PSUs but it isnt as far as I know Evga branded psu are made by the best PSU maker dont remeber its name, anyways also did you do a run with malware bytes or any antivirus programs?

Temps aren't bad, CPU hits around 45-49 max while GPU hits around the 60-70 range.

My C and D drive don't have any errors on them. E has a "reallocated files count" error/caution using crystaldisk.

games i'm playing are mainly on C and D

I had some malware on my other drives...cleaning them seem to fix the issue (at least from what i can tell)

Edit: Apparently it's one of my RAM sticks it seems, Memtest didn't find any errors but something is bad on it... i'm now at 4GB and running fine.
