Seemingly random but frequent crashes
I am experiencing multiple crashes per day which don't seem to related to specific websites or content, the most recent of which are submitted over the past two days:

Before I try a fresh install, I wondered if anyone can help interpret the crashes as I am curious what is going on but don't have the skills to DIY this.

Your crashes are all over the place. Sometimes this means the system is having issues with the RAM.

MemTest
Could you please run a tool from http://memtest.org/
in order to check the integrity of your RAM?
You will need a thumb or disk drive to install it on.
Do you let Windows handle the page file or did you set a fixed size ?
Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> Performance -> Settings
If you use a fixed size for the page file then try the former and let Windows handle the page file. How to determine the appropriate page file size for 64-bit versions of Windows {web link}

Thanks for the reply and for having a look at my issues. I do let Windows handle page file (Automatically manage paging file size for all drives) but I did add an extra 16GB of RAM a couple of months ago - not sure this is relevant. I'll run memtest today and report back.
Well, I got red... I didn't even think of RAM!
I'll try a few BIOS settings and see if it stabilises. If not, RMA time. Thanks for the pointer
