I heard that there will be a directstorage for games on Windows 11, is there any requirements for this feature to work?

    from the windows 11 Requirements page ( https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-11-specifications ) the requirments are 

    • DirectStorage requires an NVMe SSD to store and run games that use the "Standard NVM Express Controller" driver and a DirectX12 GPU with Shader Model 6.0 support

    In theory the 2060 while using the NVME with the RST driver it should work when its implemented :)

    This is a diagram of how it works. It looks like it should speed up things quite a bit skipping a controller chip.
