This has been happening for awhile now where my computer will (What seems) randomly lock up completely, Won't let me move the mouse, keyboard won't work, the computer completely dead locks and then after a bit, it will blue screen and restart, and I don't actually know why. There seems to be no way to actually recreate the error since as I mentioned, it's random and sometimes it can lock up right after a lock up or sometimes it won't lock up for an entire day, though this is only whenever I'm doing something it will lock up such as if I open a youtube video or am simply browsing through facebook, if I leave my computer idle then it seems to never lock up. So far it's seemed to lock up the post on loading a new youtube video, I'll open a tab, search the youtube video and when the video is loading, the computer will lock up.
Originally I thought it was the Hard Drive or windows itself because of these Blue Screen errors logs I got:

though I never really error checked my drive, I instead just brought a new one as I was going to anyway and reinstalled Windows 8.1 on it. The lock ups didn't actually happen for about 2 days after that till yesterday where they started to happen again.
Because of this, I next assumed it was the RAM but after running 2 different error checks on it (MemTest and Windows Memory Diagnostic), they returned zero errors (I left Memtest running for about 4 hours with it getting up to 4 passes).
So at this point I'm not even sure what's causing it. I would look at the error logs to check but strangely ever since I installed my new hard drive, the blue screens won't report on errors and the blue screen itself seems to freak out, looking like this:

My only guess now would be the GPU but that's not even 1 year old so I'm not sure. Does anyone know what the problem may be or what else I should test as I'm running out of ideas.
Also it's not cause of overheating, the temps seem perfectly normal when it locks up.
