What kernel are you using?  Can you post your emerge --info?

My initial guesses are one of:

1. You are using some experimental kernel that is corrupting the filesystem

or

2. That your old power supply is not sufficient for your new
components, and this is showing up as an occasional IO/DMA error on
the hard disk.
