I apologize for the poor title, i will try to give a better explanation of the issue.
Initially the issue started 3-4 months ago, at which time i was using Windows 7. Around the same time one of my 2 CPU fans stopped working but because my temperature wasn't going above 50 degree celsius i was hesitant to replace any part so i kind of just ignored the issue because every test i ran at the time came back as everything is fine and the only log i could find was Kernel-Power "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly."; which doesn't tell me much because i was forced into manually restarting my pc. Around January of 2015, i upgraded the OS to Windows 8.1 but the issue persisted. A week ago my CPU fan died and i replaced it with the EVO Hyper 212 as well as installed a new SSD drive (samsung pro 850).
The issue is hard to explain because it isn't a BSOD with a message to contribute. The timing seems random and not linked to when the pc is under stress (gaming). Sometimes it can happen right after booting, other times it won't happen for hours and sometimes it can happen several times in a very short time period.
Now for the issue itself. I have two monitors, each monitor will pick a random color from the rgb scale and take on that color for the entire screen. Monitor one might be blue and monitor two might be pink, moving the mouse or using the keyboard does nothing and forces me into manually rebooting the system.
I have screenshots if that will help and have attached the zip file. I am also currently speaking to EVGA to run tests on the graphic card and i had the pc at a shop all week, they had been stress testing the card and said that there was no issues with it.
I received my pc back from the shop yesterday, spent all of yesterday and today doing installs/updates. Everything was fine, it was on for over 8 hours without any issues and the problem did not occur again until i installed the optional/recommended updates from windows update. I went back and removed the most recent ones, not sure if they are the cause or not.

You guys are my last hope, if you can make some sense out of any of this i would greatly appreciate it! Thanks in advance =D

- For some reason dxdiag has always said i have 8CPU's since day one but i do not believe that to be a problem.
