Question Samsung evo 970 plus 2tb compatible with this list?

[anahone123]

Hello community,

I wanted to know if the samsung evo 970 plus 2tb is compatible and works good with the gigabyte b450m ds3h v2 with ryzen 5 3600 and rx 6600. In the gigabyte website it stands:

1 x M.2 connector (Socket 3, M key, type 2242/2260/2280/22110 SATA and PCIe x4/x2* SSD support)
* Actual support may vary by CPU.
* Supports only M.2 SATA SSDs when using an AMD Athlon™-series/ 7th Gen. A-series or Athlon™ X4 APU.

Thank you.

Looks OK to me if I read that spec sheet correctly.

Is it true that my mainboard can only support up to NVMe ssd m.2 PCIe 3.0? Or to PCIe 4.0?

Pcie 3 but you can use a pcie 4 ssd.

above paste from manual; looks to me like 3.0 only. Not much difference from 4.0. I wouldn't worry unless you would have severe buyer's remorse. A 4.0 drive would work at 3.0 speeds.
