edit: those 500w evga units usually are not the best anyways.

alright, try doing this. leave the clocks at stock, set the cpu volts to 1.3v static. set the ram to 1.65v at stock speeds. these should be safe to run and report back if it keeps giving you trouble.

Also i just realized i put a different cpu in it to see if it was the other cpu and it still does the same thing the new cpu in it is an i5 4590
 
looks like it may be the motherboard.
 
For anyone wondering yes i found the problem, the vrm thermal pad was bad. I changed it an now it seems to be working fine knock on wood.
