Can a gen 3 pcie m.2 be used in either m.2 slot when using a Intel Core 11th Gen Processor?

i contacted asus and they said a gen 3 will work in either slot while using a gen 11 cpu

does this z590i motherboard support windows 11?

Yes, the ASUS ROG STRIX Z590-I GAMING WIFI motherboard supports Windows 11.

Does the design of the m.2 stack affect the temperatures of the ssd?

YES the bottom drive can exceed 80c when both are in use, recommend good air flow or direct fan on the heatsink which kinda looks dumb

Is there a benefit to using an 11th gen over using a 10th gen on this board?

11th gen perform better, and theres more tvb options up to 745 single core cpuz 5.5ghz, 715-720 stock

Can a Gen 3 Pcie M.2 be used in the either of the m.2 slots using 11th Gen Intel Core Processor?

Yes, a Gen 3 PCIe M.2 can be used in the M.2 slots. For Intel 11th Gen Processors, the M.2_2 slot (Key M), type 2242/2260/2280 supports PCIe 3.0 x4 and SATA modes.
