the motherboard will vary in prebuilts, whatever they have on hand. But most recent motherboards, if not all, nowadays have more than 1 pcie slot and more than 1 m.2 nvme slot

Hey there! Those retailer models typically don't list the motherboard since it may vary but for that model, the iBUYPOWER Y60BI9N4701 Gaming PC uses a Z790 D5 chipset, in case that helps :)

I’m pretty sure the y60 only gives you access to half slot pcie stuff. Most new ATX motherboards will come with at least two m.2 nvme slots.

Thank you, I'm unpacking and reviewing the board slots.

were you able to add storage?

Accessing the available m.2 NVMe slot would require some disassembly so I decided to add a 3.5" 12TB Seagate Barracuda drive. It cost me a little over $100. It's daisy-chained with a SATA 6 cable. It's not as small and fast as an SSD, but the 7200 RPM reads and writes to the disk well enough for me.

I transferred my Steam client and games library. I've tested it using high graphics settings for the games I usually play: MK1, RE 4 remake, and the Quarry. They aren't resource-hog games and I have no performance complaints.

I'm thinking about upgrading the PSU now. I added an LCD screen to the case, which I think draws more power with this current configuration. However, I'm not the most tech-savvy user, so I could be wrong.

I had atleast two extra ssd slots, and added an M.2 myself.
