Some info:
1. Computer freezes for 30 seconds before restarting (I dont get crash dumps if i restart manually)
2. Only happens while under load (Benchmark/Games) I can watch videos for hours without a problem
3. It's a new PC
4. I've used Snappy to update my system
Warning
Please make a backup of your important files and get your rescue media or create one.
Please create a restore point.
Please follow this tutorial to run driver verifier.
Driver verifier stresses your drivers and will crash your pc if any driver fails due to a violation.
Driver verifier should be performed for a max of 48 hours, or when you have a bluescreen, whatever comes first.
If driver verifier has found a violation and you can't get back into windows normally, try to boot into safe mode and reset in safe mode driver verifier, or in the troubleshooting options open command prompt and type verifier /reset.
Note
Your system will act very sluggishly while driver verifier is enabled, this is normal as your drivers will be being subjected to heavy testing in order to make them crash.
Driver Verifier is running right now.....
How long does it usually take to check 18 drivers with a good cpu?
using verifier /query i can see this

Also should i try to force a bsod by benchmarking while driver verifier is running?
well...i just ran four Intel Extreme Tuning Benchmarks in a row without a BSOD or any other problem
I've ran it 6 times yesterday and this morning and it froze and BSOD 5/6 times
I'll keep Driver Verifier running and see what happens
got a BSOD while running Driver Verifier, What do i do now? use dm log collecter and upload?
It looks like your wireless network card driver is causing the crashes.
See if you can find driver updates for it from the manufacturer.

Guess its my fault for choosing a cheap wireless card
i've Installed the possible ralink drivers instead of the mediatek ones
Might just buy a decent one if it still crashes
