Warning don't buy M.2 NVMe. Serious overheating issues.

Don't buy M.2 NVMe if you are a gamer or steamer or content creator.
Unless you live in a country or your room temparature is below 25c 24/7.

Perth summer time 30c today NVMe overheat caused my pc to shutdown 5 times due to less than 30 minutes of game play on dota 2. this means that continuos load on this * will cause overheating issues.
i got i got 10 fans, gpu x 3, cpu x 1, psu x 1, case x 5 (3 x140mm, 2 x 120mm) still it * overheats.

I'm getting a normal SSD tomorrow. NVMe will be use to transfer or save smaller files.
Such a let down. Or maybe i should buy a table fan and blow directly on that * . im so piss off sorry for my words. but that feeling when u expect something u pay so much for to work but it fail on such a simple task. i havent even try to use it for my content creating damn it. I would rather spend on something thats more reliable than a high speed but fail NVMe.

its a samsung 960 evo 500gb by the way.

You must have missed the articles and thermal images last year. Both Samsung and Intel have publically stated their new NVMe solid state drives require adequate airflow. PC cases should have adequate ventilation, airflow, and cooling. If you have a pc case crammed full of components and all the cables look lie spaghetti, then it is highly probable the airflow is restricted.

We're not that far behind you here in beautiful sunny southern Arizona where the sun shines 350 days a year and people do not shovel snow. Ambient room temperature today is 27.6 Celsius without air conditioning. Outdoor temperature will reach 32 Celsius on Thursday. During the summer months it will be much higher. Summer temperature can reach as high as 46 Celsius. Have yet to experience any temperature problems.
