[SOLVED] Gen2 x2 m.2 nvme ssd recomendations

[Issue Games]

Hello everyone, so I dont have super high end pc, but recently I been wanting to jump onto the high speeds of nvme ssds, my mobo is a gigabyte h310 and the manual says it supports m.2 nvme gen2 x2. I have been searching online for a gen2 x2 m.2 nvme ssd but not able to find one. And I know u can use gen3 nvmes with gen2 but I wanna save some bucks and I wont be upgrading my pc anytime soon so i dont need gen3 since my pc wont be able to utilize those speeds. So if anyone could recommend some 1tb or 500gb gen2 x2 m2 nvme ssds to me.. Sorry for stupid questions.
My specs are;
i5 8400
Gigabyte h310m s2h 2.0 mobo
16gb ddr4 ram
rx 580 8gb

All the less expensive NVME are going to be Gen 3 x4.

SN550 will work fine at x2 PCIe 2.0. No real point in getting a Gen2 drive at this point, or even a x2 PCIe 3.0 drive for that matter.

Thanks for the response. Can you make some more similar recommendations that are bang for the buck and reliable in long term usage. I searched some stores but they are all out of stock on sn550

Depends on your location/region I guess.

This drive should be fine, for a low budget option.
