Question for EVGA as a manufacturer:
I have an M.2 Samsung 950 PRO SSD on the secondary M.2 slot.
This disabled the PE4 slot which runs at 4X and I need for another PCIe card I plan on adding (Asus ThunderBoltEX3).
I plan on migrating the SSD to M.2 slot 1,
which sits directly beneath the GPU (STRIX 1080 OC).
I am concerned about the SSD becoming too hot.
Have you tested seating an M.2 SSD in that slot with a blower-style GPU?
I am worried about heat. How best could I get some airflow to the M.2 SSD in that spot?
I love this board and love my build, but am looking to add the final pieces to make the build excellent.
Thank you EVGA for such an extremely powerful motherboard.
