I'll give it a try thanks
My processor sports a Tuniq Tower 120 with Arctic Cooling MX-7 Thermal Compound. My case has a 120mm fan on the back and a 80mm fan on the side.

My guess is unstable oc (yes even if prime passes). I had the exact same thing happen to me and in the end i had to pump the processor's vcore some to get it working properly.

Maybe this is just a stupid idea or you already did this: I've got Asus M4A77TD mother board with Athlon II X4 640 (OC'd to 3.6 GHz). Recently I had messed up with the BIOS so much I had to remove the battery and set everything back from default settings again.
I was sure that my CPU was 3.6 GHz again (the BIOS told me) but in Windows the "All CPU" widget showed the first core underclocking itself as low as to 1 GHz (the rest was, indeed, 3.6 GHz solid).
I think the only thing in BIOS I forgot to set was the UNLEASHING MODE (since you have ASUS with AM3 too, you could have the same option available). I also have the number of cores set manually.
It's a long shot but it's the first thing that came on my mind when I saw this thread.
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
AMD Athlon II X4 640 @ 3.7 GHz
Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 5670 1 GB DDR5 @ 800/1000 MHz
RAM 2x2 GB DDR 3 Dual channel

As I bought new parts lately (mainboard, cpu, ram), my board overclocked himself, I really did nothing and it was overclocked. But I noticed this just after some days. I had to manually deactivate some BIOS settings. My mainboard, cpu and ram are meant for each other, all are is made for OC (the mb even has a physical realtime OC button on it ^^), but I don't want to OC right now. What I want to say, play with the default settings. ^^ I convert HD movies in the background, downloading stuff and so on and PCSX2 still runs at 50/60 FPS with the games it should.
My Specs @ PCSX2 1.3.1-20150827 (Git):
Mainboard: Asus Crosshair IV Formula | CPU+Cooler: AMD Phenom II X6 1090T BE @ 3,72 Ghz (Auto-OCed by ROG) + Prolimatech Megahalems Rev.B (+ 2x Enermax Everest)
LED Monitor: Overlord Tempest X270OC | GFX: Palit Geforce GTX 670 JetStream | Ram: @ CL9 DDR3-1333: GSkill Flare 2x2GB + 2x4GB Corsair Vengeance
