i talked to an Asrock tech guy about why my SM951 was not reaching it's full 2GB/s, 1.5GB/s speed and he told me that it's because the PCIE4 3.0 x16 Lane, x4 BW was directly connected to the chipset and not the CPU unlike the x16 lane where my GTX 970 sits. my specs are as listed:
Z97 Asrock Fatality Killer
16GB RAM
I7-4790K
GTX 970 Gigabyte
SM951 256GB(windows 10 pro)(Plugged in Lycom adapter)
850 Evo 500GB(windows 10 home-Inserted in hot swap tray)
1TB WB blue
4TB WD Black
x1 PCIE x1 Lane is occupied by Asus wireless card
Noctua NH-D14 on CPU.
Thanks in Advance for the help guys.
