A whole machine with a 580 ... under 350w ... I would look elsewhere for problems. Try the card in another PC.

It ran fine in diagnostic mode but as soon as I ran dxdiag it rebooted, dxdiag runs in safe mode though, please need some advice.

Try going back to the old GPU that you had and run some benchmarks with it. Lets make sure the thing is stable. It would seem from what you are saying that it's the system and not the new GPU.
You may also want to try a benchmark in DX9 and then DX11. See if they both do it.

Make sure the 8 pin power connectors are using separate power supply leads. Not a single lead with a splitter.

Was the video card the one we shipped with the PC? How many power connectors does the video card have?
