Im looking at adding a M.2 SSD to my current system.
The motherboard can take a M.2 PCIe but im a little unsure about speeds that the motherboard can take to the M.2 that i want to buy.
The Motherboard was made over 3 years ago now so i know some new thing for M.2 will not be compatible this older board. reducing speed/wasting money etc
Its a cheaper motherboard so i know companies have to save money somewhere and i know this is the type of place.
So, the M.2 im looking at is:
Sabrent 1TB Rocket NVMe PCIe M.2 2280

and the motherboard i have it:
ASUS AMD PRIME A320M-K
https://www.amazon.co.uk/ASUS-PRIME-A320M-K-Generation-Motherboard/dp/B06Y6GDYD4/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=PRIME-A320M-K&qid=1582110626&sr=8-2
I'd rather buy a M.2 that doesnt get bottled necked by the motherboard.
The rest of my system specs are:
Ryzen 5 1500x
GTX 1070ti
Sata SSD
Also, one last thing. is it really worth buy a M.2 over a Sata ssd when it comes to real world speeds. Mainly gaming performance (loading speed)
