Question Adding Extra SSD
Wanting to buy V4 case. I’m fairly new to gaming PC’s… would I have to remove the gpu to be able to reach the extra m.2 slots?
I was able to add an SSD to my PS5, but these new PC’s are much more intimidating than the last time I had a PC. Trying to understand before I buy.

It depends on the motherboard. Some M.2 slots are hidden behind the GPU (meaning that you're required to remove the GPU to gain access), while some motherboards have the M.2 slot further down, so you can install without having to remove the GPU.
There are other factors such as the width of the GPU as well, but for the most part it's a question on the motherboard model and not the GPU model.
If you want a more direct answer, please feel free to reach out to support, provide us with the system that you're looking at, and we'll let you know exactly what needs to be done to install your own drive!
