This is my build. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/4bkw8K

I was hoping to use an NVMe SSD but it doesn't seem that this MoBo supports it. Am I correct? Any suggestions as to what MoBo I could use that keeps me about the $200.00 price range with 270 chipset. Also, does this look like a decent build? Thank you.

it's a bit strange build.
why would you go for 2xM.2 SanDisk X400 512 when 1TB model will be cheaper ?
Also Crucial MX300 is a good option.
All those disks are not NVMe but are very fast. large (1TB) NVMe disks are available from samsung like the 960

this mobo has 2 x M.2 ports. you can use 1 now for NVMe or other M.2 drive and leave the other for upcoming Optane drives.

As a side note, any modern MB (Z97, 100 series and 200 series) with M.2 slot supports NVMe drive including the one you've picked.

Another side note, you don't want that PSU.
Pick Corsair RM650x or EVGA SuperNova G2 or G3 or P2 of 650 watt

I have those 2 ssd selected to run raid0.If my MoBo will support an nvme ssd I will change them. I just want to make sure I will be able to boot to the nvme ssd and that my MoBo will fully support them in the 2 m.2 slots.
