Test your PSU as seen here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FWXgQSokF4

It could be PSU issue, if the PSU is good, then test your memories in different spots. If the problem still persists, then you might have a faulty motherboard or RAM.

I've never heard of the system shutting down when you go into BIOS, usually it will shut down after you've updated or made changes to the BIOS, which is normal.

I am still suspicious of heat issues, and possible a faulty motherboard.
When you say your system has been shutting down do you mean the system works (allows you to login) and then suddenly powers off? Could be a heat issue, try to monitor the temps inside your system. Try resetting the BIOS/CMOS. The drive shouldn't be causing issues (considering its an SSD).
 

Sorry, i forgot to apply that i have a hdd for my windows 10 system. As well as a usb 500gb usb hdd for games. When i go into the bios. My system shuts down quickly.
