Could be a factor here.

I still think its something with your drivers or RAM, and really temps could be an issue.
Idle: Mobo: 40 CPU: 31 GPU: 48 (degrees celsius)

i dont think its your psu based on what you described, i would say either you gfx is bad or the drivers are currupt/have some issue. i would try cleaning and reinstalling drivers, then testing gfx with stress testing, then reformat seeing if any of those work as you go

GPU, RAM or an unstable overclock. PSU failures generally are random reboots, and occasional BSOD followed by an instant reboot.

Motherboard at 40 idle isnt great. When you are gaming, that can rise up quick. I would look to increase your airflow throughout your case for sure.

Like I said, and many others now

Drivers
and/or RAM.

I'm in the process of reinstalling GFX drivers. Need to reboot now
This is a very fresh install (2 days old) so not really much chance for many software problems to arise. My RAM is quite new and this hdd is also quite new (both under 2 weeks old)
rebooting and finding a disc to burn memtest on now

Make sure you get a sweeper of sorts.

Driver Sweeper is a good one, then just to be certain, boot into Safe Mode and run the driver sweeper again, before installing your drivers again.

Doesnt always mean it should be fine because its new or newer. Hardware can fail at any point including from the word Go.

how about your RAM timings?

Are they running in spec with your RAM?

BSOD during startup still again could be either of the 2.
You said thats now fixed, Im assuming after wiping and re-installing your drivers?
