Would it be fine to just put in the bottom one I really don't want to have to remove GPU and/or cooler

You can put it on the bottom one

Ok

#

My board should support NVMe right?

#

• These sockets support PCIe 3.0 x4 and SATA mode M Key design and type 2242/ 2260/ 2280 storage devices. • When a device in SATA mode is installed on the M.2_1 socket, SATA_1 port cannot be used. • These sockets support IRST (Intel® Rapid Storage Technology). The M.2 SSD module is purchased separately
