Hi guys... planning a new build and I am looking hard at this motherboard combined with a 6700K and 32GB of RAM. I would also like to purchase the new Samsung NVME drive (http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-950-512GB-PCIe-NVMe/dp/B01639694M) to use with this board, but I can not determine if the M.2 slot actually supports NVME/PCIe 3.0 or not.

Anyone running this setup or ran into this dilemma themselves? I see the board also has U.2 ports which I am largely unfamiliar with, but they are claiming full NVME support on those ports.

Awesome.... thank you! I opted to skip the M.2 for now.. went with a pair of Samsung 500GB 850 Evo's instead that I'm going to run in RAID 0. I'll probably eventually upgrade to the Samsung M.2 drive, but want to see if the price comes down first over time.

All the parts are ordered... I'm replacing the system in my sig, sans video card. I'll probably do an SLI setup sometime later this year as well.
