Samsung 960 EVO compatibility

[James_G]

I am going to building a pc and want to know if the Samsung 960 EVO is compatible with the MSI B250M PRO-VD or PRO-VDH
Thanks

Yes it is

Nice mobo choice

i have the msi z270 sli and it works great. Windows 7 takes a little tweaking to get it working though.

here is my complete build for reference https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mNqtRG

How much tweaking does it need. This is my first build.

Agree, it is compatible as you can see here in the MSI support data HERE.

You need to use MSI smart tool (new version) to add usb3 and nvme support to your usb windows 7 live cd
