Thanks! I've caught up a bit later with the Z490 architecture.
A cool thing about this x4 slot is that I can use it for my AE-9, which only needs one PCIe lane. Then the graphics card can remain at x16.
Plugging the M.2 SSDs via DIMM.2 will set the graphics card to x8 from what I've seen.

Yeah, i resisted for long going down the Maximus lane, out of scare that it only has x16 for the graphics card and that's it. It is serendipitous that AE-9 can work without affecting the x16 for the graphics card. Also, it is great that I didn't order any M.2 drives for this PC. SATA SSDs will have to make due.
