The only things I can think of:
  1. Check the rating of your power supply, is it sufficiently powerful to run everything you've got hooked up to it?
  2. As most of your stuff is new, you shouldn't be getting failures there but there may still be a component that failed straight out of the box of course. I would disconnect anything that's old, try to get it running on the new stuff first and see if that works without these issues turning up. Create a bootable USB with Linux on it or something like that and run from that so that you can avoid the old HDD. See if you can use a keyboard/mouse with wires to avoid connection issues there.
Others may well have better advice...
Edited to add: how stable is your power supply from the outlet? If the input power is wonky, you may get strange effects although a computer PSU may be able to deal with some variations.
