Already running latest BIOS (2018/12/19 for ASRock B450 Pro4 and 2018/12/17 for ASUS X470 Pro).

I found out that openSUSE Tumbleweed with stock 4.20.0 kernel doesn't appear to freeze. I tried copying suse's kernel and /lib/modules to Xubuntu 18.04LTS, but it didn't seem to help, xubuntu still freezes. Maybe, xubuntu's firmware packages are old? But I could've done something wrong with the transplant procedure :) I'm going to test Xubuntu 18.10 during the weekends, maybe it has newer packages and does not freeze.
