Sorry for taking so long this PC is shared so I needed to wait another night. It completed 8 complete passes with 0 errors.

That's a good sign. Don't worry about the time. Just do things whenever you can. We are always around.
Something strange just happened... I took a shower with my PC idle and came back to it completely frozen. I tried moving the mouse and inputting commands on the keyboard but the screen just stayed the same.
I waited for some kind of BSOD or error message but nothing happened. Everything seemed ordinary, no loud fans etc. except for the processing light that flickers. It didn't flicker at all and stayed completely dark until I manually restarted the computer and now everything is working fine.
Please run the BSOD Posting Instructions again and upload the results here. BSOD - Posting Instructions
Ok I ran it, here is the file.
I was hoping it had left a dump file, but unfortunately not. Pleas go ahead and run the Furmark test @Boozad asked for in post 2. Be sure to have a GPU monitoring program and watch it constantly. Temps will go up rapidly and very high. If it gets too hot, stop the test. Run it until the temps level out and stop increasing, which should be just a few minutes. Watch for artifacts while the test is running also.
I was about to run Furmark but then I noticed AUXTIN was overheating. Also I had another CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED BSOD so I uploaded that aswell.
friendlybear, I know the tutorial says to use Speedfan. Personally I don't trust the readings it gives. You may want to look at Cupid HWMonitor http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html, Open Hardware Monitor http://openhardwaremonitor.org/downloads/ or I always prefer hardware specific programs such as Core Temp or Real Temp for CPU temps and Programs specifically for GPU Temps like MSI Afterburner http://gaming.msi.com/features/afterburner, EVGA Precision X if you have an EVGA Card or you list a Sapphire card. They have Sapphire Trixx, which is a good program. http://www.sapphiretech.com/productd...nload&lang=eng . On the Sapphire link scroll down and click on Utilities. Trixx and Afterburner are basically an overclocking utility, but they are very good monitoring programs and you can adjust fan speed and several things and not worry about overclocking.
Ran the furmark test for 4 minutes. Temperatures stayed at 80°C and didn't increase for the rest of the test. As far as I could tell there wasn't any artifacting. Which is odd, since some of my games artifact. Not all of them, just some. Also I can't open CCC as per usual. I also had a MACHINE CHECK EXCEPTION BSOD recently so I'll go ahead and post that.
I have ran malware scans and tried fresh install of driver to no avail.
EDIT: I have been thinking about reseating the GPU. Long story short this PC has been acting up ever since I replaced all the parts from water damage. I haven't touched the GPU at all and perhaps the PCIE slots are dislodged or something isn't seated properly? Could that potentially cause these problems? They seem software related but I read in a few forums that physical hardware issues can be a cause.
Also, after installing a Windows update my background was black for some reason. It came back after 10 minutes but then went black again. I restarted and set the background manually and it has stayed thus far. Plus I am having trouble with my browsers. I am using Firefox to watch Twitch and when I choose 'Source' which is 1080p/60fps quality. It has a strange fps lag. Even more-so if I move my mouse into the player itself. It works normally in Chrome but it does this annoying buffer in Chrome that forces me to refresh the page to solve. If I don't it will just buffer forever. Sorry for the rant I just thought I may as well update you with this problem machine.
Can you tell me what external devices you have connected to the computer? Looking at your 2 dump files, one listed the Intelppm as the cause (the CPU driver) the other was the same as you have been getting all along Stop code EF. Maybe @Boozad will take a look, (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc232109.aspx) but this is the closest I can find
Next please right click on the start icon and select Command prompt administrator, give admin permissions and copy/paste this into the window that opens and press enter sfc /scannow . If you decide to type it in, please notice the space between the sfc and the /. We want it to say no integrity violations were found. If it says there where corrupt files that could not be repaired, please reboot and run it again. You may have to run it 3 times with reboots in between each time. Try that and let me know what you find.Code:ffffe001a84e7840 Device object (ffffe001a84e7840) is for: Cannot read _DRIVER_OBJECT at ffffe001a847ce90 DriverObject ffffe001a847ce90 Current Irp ffffe001a84e7858 RefCount 0 Type 00000000 Flags a8484378 Vpb ffffe001a94cb838 DevExt 00000000 DevObjExt 00000000 Characteristics (0xffffe001) FILE_REMOVABLE_MEDIA, FILE_CHARACTERISTIC_WEBDAV_DEVICE, FILE_CHARACTERISTIC_CSV, FILE_DEVICE_ALLOW_APPCONTAINER_TRAVERSAL, FILE_PORTABLE_DEVICE Unknown flags 0xfff8c000 AttachedDevice (Upper) ffffe001a84e7858ffffe001a84e7858: is not a device object
Also, in an admin command prompt just like above, please run this command, just copy paste it into the window and press enter Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth . It will stay at 20% for a long time and act like it is doing nothing, but it is. It can take from 20 minutes to a couple of hours, depending on what it finds. And a lot of people can't run it and I have no idea why.
