Welcome to my PC disaster 
I've gathered at least that this is (most likely) a physical failure, so I'll give all the information I can because I am at a total loss here. None of my friends nor friends of friends can figure out what's wrong. I'm fairly knowledgable on PCs but this is the first time I've has to ask for help.
To cut into the problem, two weeks ago my newly upgraded rig crashed to a blue screen of death. The (first) exact message was:
WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR
When I tried to reboot my PC after this I didn't get a visual response at all. Fans whirred, LEDs lit up but no Operating System. I unplugged the ssd then it booted into the BIOS, plugged the ssd back in and restarted. Then it booted into the OS fine.
But now every time I boot my computer I get a different blue screen message, like
CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT
UNEXPECTED_KERNEL_MODE_TRAP
What's worse is I can't use it for more than 2 minutes before it completely crashes.
What I've tried so far:
1) Restarted. BSOD still persisted.
2) Made sure all overclocking features were disabled in the BIOS. BSOD still persisted.
3) Changed RAM into different slots and tried DDR3 RAM. BSOD still persisted.
4) Tried repairing with the Windows disc. It said my disc was invalid (bearing in mind that I was in Windows 8.1 and the disc is Windows 8).
4) Attempted to download Driver Booster to see if it was a faulty driver but it crashed before I could install the program.
5) Loading a previous operating state (a week prior to the constant crashing). BSOD still persisted.
6) Booted in Safe Mode. BSOD still persisted.
7) Wiped SSD and loaded a fresh install of Windows 8. BSOD still persisted.
8) Unplugged SSD and connected my old parts to see if I could isolate the problem to the SSD. I didn't get a BSOD for the entire 30 minutes that I let it run.
So that leaves the CPU, CPU COOLER, GPU, PSU.
The only noticeable problem is that when I boot into BIOS, it says my CPU tempt is hovering 58-60 degrees Celsius (140 Fahrenheit). However when I log in and open CAM (the monitoring software for the CPU COOLER) it says it's hovering 35-38 degrees Celsius (100 Fahrenheit).
My system parts are all running at stock frequencies:
CPU: intel i7 7700k
CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken X52
GPU: MSI GTX 1070 Gaming X
Mobo: ASRock Fatal1ty Z270 Gaming K6
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB DDR4 (2x8GB)
Storage: Samsung 850 EVO 250GB & Seagate Barracuda 1TB
PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA G2 850W 80+ Gold
OS: Microsoft Windows 8.1 OEM 64-bit
As you can see, I've done most everything that one can do without assistance. I'm really relying on your help because this is an expensive paperweight!
Thanks in advance for your help

Feel free to ask any more information that I could give!!
