I have an i7-11th gen (OLED) with 16 gb of ram configuration. I already upgraded my M.2 to samsung 970 evo but was thinking of upgrading to a M.2 with 4th gen speeds but I cannot find the PCIe generation of the motherboard. Does anyone know what it is? Running Windows 11.

Hi:

 

According to the processor specs for your notebook, the processor is gen 4, but the chipset is gen 3, so I would assume that a Gen 4 SSD would not run at the full gen 4 speed.
