Solved question about Dimm 2

07-29-2016, 04:06 AM

Hello, your concern about the DIMM 2 slot is understandable. Since you don’t have NVMe drives available, you can still install the DIMM 2 card into the motherboard without any issues. Just make sure it fits properly and there are no conflicts with other components. Let me know if you need more details!

Is this about the M.2 cover or heatsink? Yes, it should not cause problems if left in place without a M.2 drive below.

He mentions a "DIMM.2" NVMe riser used by Asus boards during a recent update. The original article can be found at the provided link. I found it confusing at first reading.

Some ASUS boards still do (see Maximus Z690 Apex and Extreme) Either way it shouldn't cause any issues.

It seems the trend has shifted, with many premium systems now featuring multiple standard M.2 NVMe ports.

That's unusual. It seems like a standard black PCB, but its design offers a cleaner look. You're right to question the aesthetic choice!

Thanks to everyone for your assistance! Now I just want to avoid showing any exposed open slots—it feels more like another heat sink. Appreciate all the support again!
