Looks like max m.2 speed on that board is 10gbit, so that looks fine.

Shit I thought the 960 EVO would have ended up cheaper

But as long as Samsung doesn't have competition in the super high performance SSDs that price will remain high. Dammit Hynix, Crucial, Micron, someone make cheap fast NVMe SSDs :(

 

I think for a consumer NVMe is mostly not worth it, but for a high-end computer that already has NVMe anyway, at least something like a 600p is worth it.
