From a cursory glance, it looks like your mobo does support PCIe bifurcation, so my suggestion to use a cheap passive bifurcation riser card to run 2x NVME drives from one of the PCIe slots will work.
You’ll need to set the mobo to run each of the x16 slots at x8 (this won’t affect your GPU performance much), then enable ‘2x x4’ mode on the other slot to bifurcate it into 2.
I use Samsung PM9A3 datacentre drives in our storage servers; good bang for buck (3.84TB for £400). Make sure you use U.2 formfactor drives instead of M.2 though: better performance and cooling.
