The Crucial P1 is a budget SSD that doesn't come with a proper heatsink, similar in quality to that god awful "heat shield" in that linked review. When I say "High performance m.2 drives come with removable finned heatsinks" I mean an actual high performance drives that come with a finned heatsinks like https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Force-MP600-Gen4-PCIe/dp/B07S... not examples of budget drives paired with flat pieces of metal.

Also your high performance SSD should be going in the direct-to-CPU slot to the right of the GPU, not under it.
