nvme ssd intel on a amd am3+ motherboard

tsimon95

I have a setup with a amd fx8320 on a gigabyte 990fx-ud3 r5 motherboard.

I'm searching for a new ssd for mine pc. Currently running a samsung 840 evo.

I want to buy the the intel 600P(€98) with a PCIe to m.2 adapter card beacause its cheaper than a 850 evo(€120) and much faster.

I'm also looking to upgrade when zen releases if it is in my budget. So the PCIe gen2.0 bottleneck disapears at that point.

So the question is can i run a nvme m.2 ssd over PCIe on a am3+ 990fx motherboard that dosn't natively support it?

Thanks for the answers.

Just buy a zen board when it comes out.

 

You can use a pcie ssd, but you can't boot from it. PCIE storage has been a thing for a long time now.
