I can't be guaranteed this is the issue, but here are a few things to look at:

• Power supply: Uses cheap su'scon capacitors. Capacitors can be a major issue if they fail.
• CPU: You're still running Ivy Bridge, which makes me assume your CPU is old. The CPU may be defective.

OP, here's what to do.

Follow the steps on this link I posted to find your CPU usage. Once you find the table that shows how much CPU usage each of your apps is currently using, screenshot that screen and post it on here.
