Hi, does anyone know if you can use the new Asrock ultra quad m.2 x16 card on a asus motherboard?
My setup is as follows:

Intel 7800x CPU
Asus Tuf Mark II X299 Motherboard
Asus 1070Ti Video card
Corsair Vengeance 2400 Memory cards 8GB X4 Kit
Evo 250GB 960 M.2 X1 OS drive
Evo 500GB 960 M.2 x2 Raid drives
WD 4TB Sata drive x1 Storage
Corsair HX850 Power Supply.

Thank you in advance for your help.

There's nothing limiting the UltraQuad M.2 to *only* ASRock boards that I can find.

BUT, there is a requirement for any motherboard to be able to split a PCIe x16 slot to accommodate and the functionality would need to exist in the BIOS for RAID/Bootable RAID.

I don't even see that feature blatantly listed for any X299 boards.... nor can I image how it would be stated.

If the Tuf X299 can do that, then I see no reason the UQM.2 wouldn't work.
