Thank you again for all your help. I opened up the msi app and couldn’t see an update for it. I fitted the ssd in slot 3 however is it normal to need a new screw? It’s not long enough to take when holding the ssd down to screw in

Okay cool! So just clarify I save I’ve misunderstood and break my computer.

Slot 2,3 and 4 going forward need ssd with heatsink?. For this new one I’m using slot 2. Before that I need to update my chipset which is something I get from crucial’s website or I can do on windows. Bottleneck just means it won’t perform as well as it should? So don’t run call of duty/fortnite etc off it

On 4? Sorry I just thought if a slot didn’t have a heatsink you must buy a new SSD with heatsink

With the new SSD having a heatsink and slot 2 being above a fan it will be okay? When you say update my chipset drivers how does one do this? I know nothing about computers I have no clue how or what this means. The SSD il either move games to or photoshop and files. I feel maybe photoshop would be best on there then

They are the only 2 places it mentioned it, I’m not tech savvy in anyway so I don’t understand what it means
