Gigabyte outs PCIe Gen 4 AORUS card for PCIe4.0 M.2 SSDs
The card can combine four PCIe4.0 M.2 SSDs connected to PCI-Express 4.0 (x4). The external interface is PCI-Express4.0 (x16), the internal interface is PCI-Express4.0 (x4), and the form factor corresponds to M.2 2242/2260/2280/22110.
The add in card generates heat with all these M2 SSDs hence it offers a cooling system that combines a 2-ball bearing fans (50mm), a 5.5mm thick pure copper heat sink, a base plate, and a high-performance thermal pad. A dedicated utility “AORUS Storage Manager” is available to control the fan speed, display the SSD status, enable RAID 0, and so on. The cart size is 262 x 115mm, and the main body is equipped with an indicator LED that can grasp the access status of the M.2 SSD.

PCIe to me only says "another small fan"... either chipset or now, PCIe SSDs...

Just need the ways of liquid cooling.....soon enough.
Waiting happily for my giga x570 works extreme to have one ready.....

Well yes, but another two couplings and another block for a hard drive? Block, 2 couplings in addition, another tube to prepare?
Feels like we're going backwards... lowering TDP of CPUs and getting more energy efficient GPUs with semi passive mode just to introduce two 40 or 50mm fans again in your system... that's stupid.

Meant for my CPU and VRM's my board is already passively cooled.
Not about to have a SB fan die on me again ....
I would slap on a couple/one big block to cool all of my M.2's for this guy as restriction isn't a thing in my system. Taking out four cards for one, so a lot more flow just opened up.

But... but... where can you use this?
3000 series that have PCIe 4.0 don't have an iGPU, meaning that 16x connection from the CPU will get eaten by the GPU.
Oh wait...
Threadawesomerippers are coming soon.

This will break some I/O speed records for sure!
