Anything in /var/log/mcelog?
Is the "edac" module running?
Does that model support bundle include any Intel MCA files?

mcelog does not exist - should it? I am not familiar with edac.

in addition to Zdenek's suggestions, I'd consider running it with the 
graphics disabled, on centos 6 set /etc/inittab to start at runlevel 3, 
then reboot.   not sure how you do it on c 7.


while its running without graphics, exercise it via ssh connections, 
running as much stuff as you can.   download a linux kernel and compile 
it with `make clean && make -j 8` over and over, that sort of thing.

dmesg

CentOS 6: less /var/log/messages

CentOS 7: journalctl -xe

It looks like a HW error, maybe CPU or RAM, so I would recommend running
memtest and some CPU bench tool as well.
