    This but just as a M.2 connection surely!? Who wants a big cumbrsome card in a custom rig.. I would sacrifice some performance if I could get the standard M.26e in black, without the PCIe riser board..

    Ermmm, almost all 'enthusiast' kit is big, cumbersome and blinged up.

    You mean this I know it's not black but if it's in most motherboard's M.2 slots it's very unlikely that you would see it anyway!

    It's exactly the same performance wise as the M6e black just not black!

    Yep, I already own that one, to state the obvious for readers (its the same m2 card but green *standard*), I just want it in black as it looks aweful on the R5e.

    @abaxas I wouldn't call a large riser card which takes up a PCIe slot (next to potentially 3 GPU cards) *bling* especially when high end boards such as the R5e already come with a M.2 slot to hide it away.
