As I suspected. 
It just hangs.

Are you using USB keyboard plugged into USB port?
Your motherboard does have PS/2 ports, see if you can use the one for keyboard.
(Sometimes keyboards come with small dongle that lets you plug USB keyboard
into PS/2 port).

At very least they does manage to get errors from the kernel driver before the
crash. You haven't seen such kind of errors, have you?

Still, you can share the blender trace with them. See if it causes hang for
them too. See if it hangs at the same place...

Chipset temperature is different than CPU and GPU.

The motherboard has a huge chips that connects the CPU with the RAM and the
PCIE slots. The GB website says it has temperature sensor on the North Bridge
and there seems to be a huge passive cooler with heat pipes on it. One leading
to a radiator on top of the MB, probably to use the PSU intake for cooling.

`sensors` should display everything that is available, even if they are not
libeled correctly.

GB like to increase the voltage a bit on their hardware, so it is more stable
when overclocked. This however means it also runs a bit hotter.
(And you need to dust off the heat sinks once or twice per year. Unless you
have special dust filters on the PC case intake vents.)
