What CPU are you running???  First time I've ever seen this without it actually stating what it is....

Vendor ID:                       GenuineIntel
Model name:                      Genuine Intel(R) CPU @ 2.00GHz

It's obviously a Xeon, but what model and what stepping?

 

Does the system event log happen to show anything (in the BIOS)

Its an ES E5-2658A v3 CPU. Possibly why i'm having these issues lol. I've installed the Tips and Tweaks plugin and set it for Performance mode, hopefully this will help.

Replacement with retail chips might be my only option.

I've posted screen shots of the BIOS options. Nothing seems to make any difference.

Yup.  That's the risk with engineering samples.

It's strange that the issue has gradually got worse over the last two years. It was fair reliable at one stage.

 

Let's see how the performance tweak goes.

 

If not, new CPU time.

So setting the intel driver for Performance mode has made it more stable. It was crashing every 12 hours at one time.

Still crashing although after 4 days. Looks like new CPUs is the only way forward.
