Video Encoding
One only needs to glance at the amount of content available on the internet from simple cat videos through to incredibly complicated films and gaming footage to realise how important fast video encoding is and the x.265 benchmark does a good job of testing that. If you prefer your encoder to be of the H variety then the HEVC benchmark does a similar thing to the x.265 benchmark but instead of running with the x265 encoder it utilises the popular H.265 format which is rapidly becoming the standard for video encoding.

That is the PCIe 3.0 M.2 slot. The PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot is the one closest to the CPU and does not come with a heat spreader, presumably because Asus expects that the PCIe 4.0 SSDs will come with their own heat spreaders. Corsair - which is part of the "TUF alliance" with Asus - deliver their MP600 series PCIe 4.0 M.2 SSDs with integrated heat spreaders. Seagate's ZP500 does not come with a heat spreader, so you'd probably have to buy one if you plan to use that SSD on this motherboard.
Gigabyte's AORUS PCIe 4.0 M.2 SSD also comes with its own heat spreader, which means you'll have spare ones, as Gigabyte's B550 motherboards come with a heat spreader.Quote
