The disappearing connectivity on modern motherboards is very disappointing.

Come on people. I want my pci-express slots back. And If I need 5 NVME drives, then I'll get one daughter pci-e card to run them off of. This also frees up motherboard space for other components you and I might desire and makes installing NVME drives much easier since you can just remove the daughterboard vs removing your gpu and everything else to get at the drive location..

The lack of M2 5th gen is a bummer, but using badwidth to put put 5 x m2 is cool, especially with 2 x 110mm. But the trend of crappy sound codecs is sad.

Shame the chipset does not support 36+ pci express lane's so all m.2 & gpu can run at full speed, assuming x4 lanes per m.2 drive
