Everest free edition will give you voltages also. What about the temps?
Is it getting super hot real quick? 2 to 3 minutes is more the enough
time for a cpu/gpu/northbridge to heatup. Are chipset drivers installed?
Any yellow or red flags in device manager? How does your ram test
out, have you ran memtest. Does it crash in safe mode? All valid
questions,,lol Ive had a similar situation, as far as freeze up and funky
colors on the screen, was indeed psu, but the bad news for me was
after a new psu, board died with old psu, it happens more often then
not.

12v was 11.88
cpu is wc at 27c
gpu was 55c
nb was 47c
All drivers up to date, windows up to date. No yellow flags in device manager. Ram test checks out just fine i ran memtest. system wont crash unless you try to run a 3d app or tweak vid card settings. Once or twice it crashed during web browsing trying to research the problem. Every time the system goes down you see neon green/red lines scattered all over & the system must be powered down. Prior to my 7800 gtx going bad the system ran top notch. This card requires a minimum of +12v 28a & this psu is only 20a. I've also found many people speak about how unstable bfg tech psu's can be. I'm really baffled by this
