I'm not sure of what the problem is, but before attempting anything else, I would IMMEDIATELY CHANGE THAT POWER SUPPLY.

Please, get this power supply, for the sake of your computer: http/www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151095

@OP: FYI, most 64GB SSDs are much slower than their 128GBs versions, so it is better to get a 128, or 256GB.

I second that PSU comment, it could in fact be the issue. Update windows, the BIOS, the chipset, everything. Run MalwareBytes and Hitman Pro. run a sfc /scannow command from an elevated command prompt.

the OCZ psu is not a great known brand when it comes to power supplies, its not even bronze certified so it isn't very efficient. Also the FX series has a somewhat weak memory controller, you are better of with 2 x 4 GB RAM instead of 4 x 2 GB sticks. Less stress on the memory controller.
