my next step was to do the Intel ME firmware update that Asus says to do, I read reports that it's not needed so initially I did not. No errors after doing so, but this has been intermittent up to this point so we will see.

alright, I think I may have resolved it. after much trial and error and research, it seems some people on various modern intel chipsets have had issues when using a gen 4 or 5 device. gigabyte made a post about it with a fix and an offer for a refund. the fix is to disable pci link state power management in the BIOS, and change the pch link speed from auto to gen 3(which doesn't matter because most people have their gpu running on the cpu lanes, not the chipset). i've done that and it seems to have worked, i know ive said that before but it's still showing no errors after several restarts, whereas prior it would always come back upon a reboot.

my issue does appear to be fixed now. ive been doing research all day and the consensus is that the link power state management for the pcie slot and ASPM cause the errors for some reason. i bet there are thousands, 10s of thousands of users out there that have these errors and have no idea. there is some good posts in the thread linked below about it, it's about high z590 chipset temps which i am also trying to mitigate. one of the lasts posts is apparently a user whos asus z590 board caught fire and claims asus paid him 90k, and he is withholding information because he signed an NDA. anyway, for people chasing this problem, it's a good resource

my pc is running fantastic now, no errors, no problems whatsoever.
[Z590] Asus ROG Maximus XIII Hero - PCH High Temperature
My PCH temperature is fairly high, which concerns me. I'm used to everything else in my system being pretty chilly, usually around 28-30 C. The airflow is also really good. The *only* thing that gets hot is the PCH, and i don't understand why. -- Some Backround Info, Setup -- Intel Pentium...

I have for the past week encountered a problem where my screens freeze for a couple of seconds and then turn off, but i can still hear audio. this happens randomly and what i am doing does not seem to have an effect

You should maybe try disabling link state power management and disabling aspm in the bios. Gigabyte posted themselves that being the fix, for WHEA pcie error. Easy to do so worth a shot
This only made the problem worse. Any other ideas?

I have no idea, see if Martin can decode a debug run on hwinfo, he can at least point you to the problem area

Bios update maybe? If you're not up to date already

Can you take a look at tell me what is causing the WHEA PCIE error?

Those errors are caused by one of the Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus Gaming drives. More precisely the one at bus 98.

Thank you. I think there is an actual error in that PCIE slot vs the card (hyper m.2 with 4 of those cards). I moved it to a different port and the errors stopped.
These are caused by the GeForce RTX 4090 GPU.
