Narey, you may want to check your memory configuration. Most of the time these need to be staggered. Here is an example for you, this is from my PC.
Not that this will fix the problem... but there are certain memory configuration that are preferred over others... and this will be in the manual for the motherboard. I'll see if I can find it after this post.
I hate to disbelieve someone requesting help... it looks dirty, and likely you havent disassembled that lately... have you disassembled it yourself or did someone else do it for you? I think I've asked that, but want to verify.
Make sure thermal paste is properly applied before the water block it put on? If overheating is an issue... maybe this needs to be re-set. Arctic Silver 5 is some of the top-of-the line thermal compound.
Also, unfortunately I found someone talking bad about your PSU. Check your voltages and make sure you are getting 12v 5v and 3.3v. Personal opinion here again, that PSU doesnt look like it can actually output 850W... you can do this with a voltage tester, or see if you can find the voltages in the BIOS.
Alternatively you can download
AIDA64 and you can check voltages there... some information isn't view-able with the free trial. I use this program for all my testing and checking needs. I have it running constantly.

Here is an AIDA64 example of my PC at work. (not same PC as other picture)
You can see where I start the stress test and my CPU starts to heat up, then I turn it back off and it slowly cools off. This is air cooling.
Now dont get me wrong... I'm only thinking of the possible things, I'm not 100% certain on any of this.. because your PSU should still be enough to power that PC you showed me a picture of, but if it's junk, and starting to fail... maybe it's not providing enough power for the video card. I see you had to have an adapter, maybe two?

Avenge POwer PSU, is likely a POS. A quality 650W PSU would power 2 460's and not break a sweat. Grab another PSU.
