I have a couple starting points for you:

1. RAM issue? Run memtest and see if there are any issues with the RAM. And/or: if you have 2x4GB making up that 8, run it with each stick alternately and see if that fixes anything. This would be my first angle of attack, especially as you can't find much info on the RAM.

2. Overheating issue? Use a hardware monitor program (CPU-Z for various system elements, GPU-Z for graphics card, etc.) and see if you're getting any crazy high temps.

Could also be a PSU issue - you could check out hardware monitoring programs to make sure voltages/etc. are in line with specs, though the best way to really test this would be to swap in another one.
