kabadisha's post in Help diagnosing system hanging intermittently was marked as the answerFinally resolved!
I refactored all my media and download directories & mounts according to the TRaSH guides, which was worth doing anyway, however this also didn't reolve the issue.
Eventually I found a deal on a replacement motherboard on Ebay. I replaced the motherboard nearly two weeks ago and so far it has been rock solid, even whilst downloading.
The thermal paste on the PCH of both my original board, as well as the replacement was very crisp. It's possible that was the issue, but hard to tell.
I repasted the new one before swapping it in and maybe when I get some free time I'll test the original once repasted.
It's frustrating not to know exactly what the root cause was, but I'm glad it appears to be resolved. :-)
