" rel="nofollow - I am considering buying an ASRock 970A-G/3.1 motherboard. My ASUS M5A97 R2.0 motherboard died on me. I had Corsair Vengeance Ram CMZ16GX3M2A1866C9 16 GB (2X8GB) 1866 MHZ. Will this memory work in the ASRock 970A-G/3.1? It is not listed on the QVL. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Dwight

No you cannot set voltages w/o memory installed. http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/970A-G3.1/#Manual" rel="nofollow - http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/970A-G3.1/#Manual |

It would be if you can buy the board, I have the 960Evo M.2 and I looked everywhere for one of these in the UK, US only. |

This motherboard manual says about M.2 PCIe 2.0 with maximum speed of 20 GB/s. I can not find any information about real data transfer rate in read/write operations between interface (PCIe 2.0) and connected SSD drive, for example, Samsung SSD 960 EVO (PCIe 3.0). No disks benchmark is found. |

I Would not worry too much as in the real world there is not much difference to Sata SSD and M.2 SSD, I found the M.2 slightly snappier, I wish I hadn't bothered and stayed with the sata just fits in any computer. |

| I can not do anything with myself. If hardware platform gives me opportunity of maximum performance, I want to use it. |
