I said if your nvme is reaching 80+ degrees then you should fix the airflow in the case. I did not say the case is 80 degrees. Any semi decent airflow is 100% capable of running an nvme without causing any performance issues.

As you saw in the article I linked that's just not true. Those temps are with airflow, and SSDs go over their temp limit.

Nope. That article states the the ssd was 'naked' which leads me to believe they removed the sticker off it. Those stickers/labels are use to dissipate heat from the controller, so you, you know, don't need a heatsink. They act as a heatsink.

No! Why would you assume crazy modifications like that? They write "naked", it's naked as in not using the heatsink the mainboard supplies. https://www.gigabyte.com/us/Motherboard/X570-AORUS-MASTER-re... shows the cooler they are talking about.

You will just have to accept that you've been wrong on this topic. Move on, it happens.
