Will keep looking.

Had my eye on a new NVMe drive today – saw a good deal on amazon prime day for one I was after BUT having checked my case, I have discovered a issue…. the 2nd on-board nvme slot is literally right underneath my gfx card…. and I’m not sure I have enough room to fit the NVMe card and heatsink……

Started looking at a cheap possible PCIe NVMe card to place in my remaining x16 PCIe slot BUT then I saw some cards need bifurication which my MB doesn’t support so decided to shelve the idea till a later date.
