There is no dump file in your upload, check C:\Windows\minidump folder to see if any are there

In the mean time heres some things to look at

First off if your OCing in anyway stop, return everything to stock settings for the purposes of testing

You have a lot of crap in your startup recommend you light it as much as possible, the only thing that actually needs to be there is your AV
Speaking of AV for the purposes of testing get rid of avast (a known BSOD causer on some machines) and install MSE

If you havent already, fill in your system specs so we know what we are dealing with

Make sure you have read the guide on asking for help with BSOD so you know what we need

And if necessary set your machine to create minidumps (Method 2 Step 2 is easiest IMO)

Run some scans to check against virus or infection
