I recently swapped out old powered ribbon risers (a 16x to 16x and 1x to 16x) for the ver 006c 16x-1x usb 3.0 risers in a rig, but with the newer risers i get WHEA PCIE errors in the event logs at about 10-15 per second. The hash rates are the same and the system as a whole is still stable.

Trying risers that work on another miner that doesn't produce these events do the same on this miner, and the risers i was trying also work on my other miner without any problems.
The motherboard is a MSI Z170 Tomahawk with latest BIOS, a Pentium G3560 and 2x MSI RX580 Armor. Running on Windows 10 64bit.
