Hi:

 

According to this discussion a NVMe SSD will work in your PC's motherboard.

 

it appears that SATA M.2 SSDs do not work in your PC's motherboard.

Here is a long discussion where someone installed a SATA M.2 SSD in their PC with the same motherboard and it didn't work.

And according to this discussion, the NVMe SSD will only run at 1/2 of its maximum advertised read/write speeds.

The good news is that a NVMe SSD running at half speed would still be around 3x faster than a SATA SSD would be.
