I keep air circulating in the case pretty well. Using the temp-control monitor that came with the motherboard shows the CPU temp to hover around 50 deg. and the overall unit temp not that much higher. The UPS diagnotics checked out. Also, when this happens the UPS doesn't so much as chirp which leads me to believe this isnt a power spike or irregular voltage issue.
I'll check out the links you provided. Thanks.

regarding your problem:
here is an optional psu calculator:
http://www.jscustompcs.com
the most importaint feature of a psu is the combined power ! a good psu must give output combined power more than 216Watts-this has nothing to do with the max . power output,but the comcombined power is a factor that describes the efficiency of a psu.
so i could also suggest the following scenario:
-check out the wiring twice ,regarding your motherboards manual;whether all expansion cards are well seated(RAM,GPU,PCI cards)
-check out the cpus assembling:pins are ok,compound is apllied in the right way,fan and heatsink are well seated,check out for overheating issues also.
-install the tool motherboard monitor
-disable the"Automatic Reboot After Crash",control panel->system->advanced->s

-clean out all kind of dust in your case
-check out for bad caps on your motherboard:
www.badcaps.net
-test your ram with memtest86+
www.memtest.org
-take out the motherboard from your case and place it on a thick cardboard and thus test the machine for couple of hours,just to prevent that the mobo is shortcutting with the case
-what about the wiring in your house and the belkin ups,are you sure that everything is a OK?
-rehaps you really need a new one psu and perhaps a better cpu cooler....
Cheers!
