Corsair MP700 and Z790 Hero

PhantWiz
Level 7

Has anyone had any success pairing the new MP700 PCIe 5.0 NVMe drive with the Z790 HERO? According to the manual, PCIe 5.0 SSD is only supported on the HYPER M.2 CARD in the 2nd PCIe slot. So that is where I put it, but I'm getting TERRIBLE write speeds (3GB/s max) and even wonky read speeds, although they did reach 9GB/s at certain points. No idea what could be causing the issue. Is the only solution to get a Z790 EXTREME with an on-board PCIe 5.0 NVMe slot?
