Hey guys, i was just wondering if anyone of you knew the speed differences and maybe like a chart between a PCI ssd and a SATA ssd.. Is it that significant? and if anyone has found some 128GB pci ssd's that are worth it that would be greatly appreciated as well.

Do you have pcie lane to spare for this?

Keep in mind that intel 1155 & 1150 only have 16 pcie lanes to begin with and most enthusiasts prefer to dedicate them to the GPU.
Here are the specs on the i7-4770k straight from intel.

PCI Express Revision 3.0
PCI Express Configurations ‡ Up to 1x16, 2x8, 1x8/2x4
Max # of PCI Express Lanes 16
