GA-x58-usb3 shutting off very randomly

I am having an issue with my pc.. It started shutting off randomly tonight and I can't figure out what's causing it.
Intel i7 290
8gm corsair ddr3 ram
OCZ modxstream 700w PSU
Evga nvidia GeForce 670
Corsair 1tg HDd
Corsair 750gb secondary Hdd

I don't know what's causing it. The furthest I've gotten it booted is to my windows home screen and it sat for 10 mins before shutting down. Most of the time it cuts off either loading windows or asking if I want to do hard disk check.

Windows 7 pro 64bit

Do you have thermal paste on the CPU? Try re-applying the paste and see if that helps.
