BSOD while gaming/watching video, random non-BSOD while doing nothing

Hey guys, I'm dealing with a rather annoying BSOD at the moment that has me worried my CPU is dying. Here is a screenshot of it. It only seems to happen when I am playing a game or watching a video, and has survived through two complete hard drive wipes. It came up when I switched to a new SSD and HDD. Upgrading the bios twice has not helped, not upgrading the graphics driver.

In addition, my PC will crash before even going to a blue screen, although this happens randomly rather than when doing anything specific. It may take a couple a days, or even as early as right after boot.

My mobo is currently set to normal, no overclocking. But when it does crash due to the BSOD, upon reboot it tells me the motherboard failed to overclock. When I do overclock it {by setting it to ASUS Optimal} I get two new BSODs randomly {did not leave it in overclock long enough to test if it was only during gaming, as I was getting a CPU overheat warning on reboot.

Any help?[strike] I would upload the DMP file but for some reason I do not have access/permission to even open it[/strike]

Found a bypass to uploading it, but its almost 1GB large. Is it normally that big?

Update: The large file size was due to it being set to kernal memory dump rather than small memory dump. I switched it back to the small version, but now my pc is exclusively crashing the way it is in the second picture, which will not create a memory dump.

Update: The crashes seem to picking up. The crash from the second picture is happening more often than the BSOD, and multiple times a day, rather than once or twice a week. It has happened 5 times within the past 24 hours
 
My PC was BSODing multiple times a while ago, I'd get maybe 10 blue screens a week, and none of the solutions online helped me. But what I did was run in the command prompt "sfc/ scannow" 5 times, and EVERYTHING was back to normal.
I also had the "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" stop code, and my PC hasn't had a blue screen since.
 
So far as of late, my PC has not had a BSOD, but instead just crashes as it does in the second picture, which doesn't create a minidump file. I do not use the stock CPU cooler, I have an EverCool Buffalo CPU Fan installed, and it is always spinning.

For the sensors, what info do you need, or would you like me to just upload the CVS files?

Sorry for the late reply, the forums kept saying I was banned.
 
Good call on the heat. After readjusting my fan cases so that the airflow was brought from forward to back, rather than side to side, my PC has yet to crash. I ran a 5+ hr stress test with my GPU running at 99% capacity with no crash, and another for 12+ hrs also with no crash. My desktop is now sitting at about 44 Celsius while gaming, rather than over 70.
