The Compatibility chart for th Z170 OC Formula only lists the Samsung 950 Pro SSD?�s. Will is also work with Samsungs 960Pro, 970Pro & 980Pro? I see the Read/Write speed of the 960Pro is within the stated MB speeds but the 970 & 980 SSD?�s are much faster. If the Z170 is compatible is there any way to take advantage of the faster read/write speeds of the 970 & 980 SSDs?

Get in contact with the Samsung people. Ask if the architecture is the same for the drives you wish to use. If it is they will work.
