Looks like I solved it right? I know I still need to run a few more tests but not really looking like it's not in old X's favor.. tell me someone has some wisdom I'm overlooking as to what the issue could be. I don't even understand why a gpu would be causing these issues..

That just happened to me, but with a GTX 1070 and no software update. idk why either.

Want to know which mobo to get?

Spoiler

Choose whatever you need. Any more, you're wasting your money. Any less, and you don't get the features you need.

 

Only you know what you need to do with your computer, so nobody's really qualified to answer this question except for you.

Just gave it another go, lasted a whole 5 minutes before the gpu just shut off while under no stress. Mayne it's over heating so I took it apart, the last screw is way too tight and glued in, naturally strip it so I can't get it off kudos to AMD for that. 

 

Actually it was under no load, I was in safe mode trying to run a gpu uninstaller to get rid of nvidia. 

 

Time to take out a loan for a new GPU.....
