Question Able to remove heatsink for nvme off X570 Gigabyte?

[mopardude87]

I am considering this motherboard, but i am also considering this nvme. The one i want has a heatsink so i was hoping it wasn't to much of a pain in the ass to remove if at all?

You should be able to take off the motherboard heatsink (otherwise how would you install a new nvme drive?), and just leave it your motherboard box or in your spare parts box. Then just install the new nvme drive and secure it down with a screw.

Edit. To be more specific, you should give the model of your motherboard.

Yeah i wasn't sure if anything attached to that particular model, i found out from someone else its simply removable so i guess i got my answer. All the X570 but the UD and mini itx models from Gigabyte have more or less this heatsink. Why i didn't mention the model

I have a gigabyte mb, they're removable and u can use either the stock Heatsink it comes with, or use the mb heatsink
