Thanks everyone, this doesn't appear to be a CentOS issue.

I went into the BIOS setup screen and watched the built-in hardware
monitor for a while (hadn't previously realized it had this).  It
showed normal temps and PS voltages but reported that the PS fan is
running slightly slow (1600RPM, though I'm not sure what it *should*
be) ... and then after three minutes, it shut down.  Voltages and
temps never wavered so I'm not sure why the slow fan would result in a
shutdown, but it clearly doesn't have anything to do with kernel
modules.
