I had wow in the background and surfing the humps. Suddenly the pc froze and the speakers made this weird constant sound. It has happened twice, and event logs show nothing apart from the pc shutting off unexpectedly. Anyone had something like this? Have both Cpu and Gpu overclocked but i've had no problems gaming.

Check the Windows event viewer.
But yeah, it could be the RAM. You will need to keep an eye on cpu/gpu temps since you OCed.

I OC'd in the summer and it managed to stay within acceptable temperature during stress testing so i'm assuming that bit is ok. Shouldn't it just shut down if that was the case? Must be the gpu oc if anything.
I will memtest when i go to bed. Damn it if the sticks start to fail :<

I've had unstable overclock where it only crashes on particular titles, did you doa 24hour stress test to confirm your overclock? Could be a number of things really, RAM, PSU, unstable settings etc. your going to have to start testing / ruling things out.
Edit: just re-read, yep overheating or unstable o/c will generally just shutdown or restart your PC without warning.

Do have a new 1070 though. But again, it's so rare that it's impossible to test and i don't know what triggers it. Might have something to do about the game being in the background, but i don't know.

You can check RAM with Windows Memory tool. Type 'memory' in start menu and run is as an admin. 
Another thing what might cause this is bad PSU.

My girlfriend laptop is freezing exactly the same way.
Totally random moments. Watching movie, doing nothing and freeze.
I've tried reinstalling win10, opening it and resocketing everything but no ram and hdd yet.
It indeed might be ram
