max temps on my nvme stay the same even after install (thankfully they didn't go up after install)! Maybe this element will help the NVME not heat up as quickly as it would without it, and maybe it can help the NVME cool down a bit faster than it would otherwise, but that's probably about it. Honestly I'm not sure I would buy this again because I feel like it didn't do anything for my system. A bit disappointed actually - I thought it would at least drop the max temp by a few degrees! :(
