I'm seeing 11 at startup. I played MSFS 2024 and noticed around 25ish more after 15 minutes. I played MSFS 2020 and after 15 minutes I went from 11 to 130. It doesn't seem to increase if i'm idle. Nothing is OC'd, just stock settings.

System is extremely stable. No black screens, CTD, reboots, nada.

Regardless, I think you are more than safe to ignore this and just game on!
I cancelled my Samsung 990 Evo Plus order after I discovered that both my gaming prebuilts are creating these errors in HWMon. One system is a stock HP Omen 30L and on startup, the RTX 3080 showed 124 PCIe errors. So my system that I built only has 11 on startup. That HP Omen 30L has been rock solid and stable even though the thermals suck. So every system I currently have has an Nvidia card and generates those errors. I am really curious to see if the Red Devil will generate those errors?

So I decided to ignore those errors and as you say Game On!
