I am replacing my Samsung 840 Evo as samsung tell me it may be faulty.
However I thought ok I will quickly order a newer 850 Evo. Then I started reading about the different bandwidths and connections!! Wow I am so confused. I was considering the following card

Hopefully I wont get into trouble for posting that link? Sorry if this is not allowed on the forum!
Are there any boards out there (unfortunately I am sticking with 1150 for the next year or so) that fully support the new SSD PCie3 cards? I may go /crossfire/SLI at some point in the future so I will need 2 pci3 slots for the GPU's, however if I am right...most motherboards (1150) do not fully support both SLI/crossfire and full SSD M.2 pcie3 as their does not appear to be sufficient bandwidth to run everything at the same time?
I was going to rebuild my system today with the Asus Maximus ranger Vii I recieved in the post this morning but I see that unfortunately it only has M.2 Pcie2.
I dont fully understand the pros and cons of the speed issue but understand that PCie M.2 SSD's are much faster! But every board I read about so far steals bandwidth from pcie sockets?
I have read a little about NVMe but dont really know if 1150 boards support this either.
I would like the extra performance. I use my PC mainly for playing games, surfing etc, no heavy media work. Maybe as I am gaming, I wont notice much difference?
Can someone clear this up for me?
many thanks indeed, in advance!!
