I have an older Asus Rampage IV Extreme X79 based motherboard and it doesn't come with NVME support. I setup a BIOS hack to allow for it to boot from NVME via a PCIe expansion card and NVME m.2 drive. I had purchased an XPG Gammix S11 Pro 1TB m.2 NVME drive but it turns out that it isn't compatible with the hacked BIOS in the X79 Motherboard I have. It isn't even detected let alone bootable. I researched a bit more and found that this drive is indicated as being compatible. Bought the Samsung PM961 and sure enough it is compatible and I am now typing on the machine with the PM961 as the bootable drive. The only drawback is for the price, the speed isn't as blazingly fast as on the XPG. Good overall performance though.
