Well I just got this board with a i5-12000K. When installing windows on a M.2 NVMe drive. This is very sad that we now went back in time.

You have to: If you want to install an operating system on an M.2 PCIe SSD, you need to install the Intel® RST
VMD Controller driver first.

It could be that I'm using a M.2 NVMe 3.0 ssd too. But more likely not.

absic:
Ah! The joys of embracing the latest tech.

Does seem strange though, that you have to install the drivers before you can access the PCIe SSD. You would think that, by now, that part of the system was well established.

dmdilks:
Yes and the drive will not even show up in the NVMe configuration setting in the Bios. It is in the Intel rapid storage technology. I'm still noising around in the Bios to find stuff. The book is basically trash. LOL

Plus the CPU is the i5-12600k not the i5-12000. LOL

dmdilks:
One other thing when it comes to the the CPU cooler. Don't jumping through hoops to get a bracket for the back of the board to mount the cooler too.

I have a Tried the Cooler Master ML240L & ML120L liquid cooler. The mounting bracket works perfect.

On the Thermal-take TH120 liquid cooler mounting bracket. All you have to do is File off the little nub in the slot. So now the screw will move back forth in the slot.

So check out your bracket first before you order one!!!

Hi,

I wondered if you have considered air cooling instead of liquid cooling? Noctua have a couple of coolers and provide a bracket without having to do any modding.

Cheers,
