Most devices from generation Z170 onward can handle NVMe startup.

No, "Z" isn't used as a standard abbreviation for Intel motherboards. The correct designation is typically "Z790" or similar models.

Information about the Z170 chipset's launch and subsequent years. NVME booting has consistently been available on nearly every board for over ten years.

Yes, I understand. You were referring to Z170 boards as the point when NVMe boot became common. I remember it was around 2015, but I wasn't sure of the exact release year. Boards released later should support NVMe regardless of whether they're from AMD or Intel, and the B650 Tomahawk fits that description.
