Of course in human time, wouldn't be worth the original price, but at this price, sure
To use this AIC on the cpu attached M.2 slot, you need one of these adapters which are known to be highly unreliable, and you have to make your own custom mounting bracket to secure it.

You could very very easily buy this and flip the Optane drive for $150 on ebay all day any day. Giving you the 12900k for essentially $200.
Low key one of the best CPU deals.

Then again, there's only one PCI-e slot on an mini-ITX mobo

Basically that's Ryzen 5000/B550 or better or Intel 11th gen or better. If you have anything older... well you probably don't have a workload where you'd even be able to measure a performance improvement with this drive, lol. And if you do, well, you just bought a 12900k with this

Do you happen to know if CPU-connected PCIe slots on Z690 support Optane? I wasn't able to find anything about this online. The reason I ask is, my motherboard (MSI MEG Z690 ACE) has one CPU M.2 slot, which doesn't support Optane; only the chipset M.2 slots support Optane, so wondering if the same might be true of PCIe. The motherboard does otherwise have one x16 and one x8 PCIe slot.
Would using Optane with chipset lanes make it not worth it compared to, say, a 980 pro on CPU M.2?

How about latency through the chipset, though? Would the random R/W make up for any latency hit and still outperform a 980 pro as an OS drive?
Thanks.

Intel was up to something great, but suppose they just couldn't get prices down.
Nevertheless, promising for future tech development, and all this talk about gen 5 is inconsequential today.
Eventually we will see ssd behave like RAM instead of traditional NVME. Not suggesting anyone wait! It will move a MANY years
