    I bought the power supply in May 2012. While just web browsing, my CPU temps are anywhere from 37C-45C and my GPU is about 30C. They get hotter while I game of course, but the restarts happen at anytime. My voltage for my CPU are 0.996, and 0.850 for my GPU. And no overclocking for me. Too worried about things getting too hot. :)
    You have a good PSU and the ASUS is well known for it's problem with ASUS anti surge. Most ASUS users well tell you to disable it.

    So you're saying the motherboard could be restarting the computer, even though it doesn't need to? Also, I just remembered I updated my BIOS kinda recently although I can't remember if this started before or after that.

    Also, here's screenshots of CPUID under heavy (playing Saints Row: The Third) and low (web browsing with Chrome) loads.

    MCleveland, is your psu plugged directly to the wall, or to a surge protector?

    It's plugged into a Belkin Surge Protector, like this one.

    Give a go at diisabling the surge setting in the bios. The more I read the more common it seems

    I just turned it off now. I'll post back if I have a random restart again. Hopefully I won't have to!

    Okay I will. Although it's nothing as fancy as some of the other stuff I've seen there.
