Pros & Cons
Pros
The adapter comes with three thermal pads that provide important thermal coupling. Includes thermal pad for cooling if needed. Temps are good at around 39 c with the built in aluminum case that acts as a heat spreader.
The anodized red color looks awesome. This is really a specialty market item that appeals to x-79 enthusiasts. I love to have everything compliment each other in both functionality and color scheme.

Cons
Almost bricked/ruined my pcie port. Now the temp when stressed the same way gets to only 121f.

I didn't understand what intel optane was and therefore made the one for one swap.
The thin one is only for a thicker nvme drive with chips on both sides--use it on the underside of the nvme drive instead of on... Read More
Competitiveness
Worked perfectly with a 1tb samsung 970.
Btw all the stuff you need to mount a nvme m.
I did not care as i have a 1tb m.
If your nvme has chips on the backside of its circuit board, the blue thermal compound pad will be too thick and squeeze your nvme.
