Hello. I am Brazilian and I have a Maximus Formula x38 running Windows 11 on NVME.

It is not a simple task to support booting from an NVME drive. Typically, EFI or UEFI support is required (although not all motherboards with EFI/UEFI support may support NVME booting).
In the 775 generation, I believe only MSI released a motherboard with EFI support.
I bought an adapter to put the NVME in the second PCI-e x16 slot.
I created a small FAT32 partition on another HD.
I marked this partition as active.
I installed Clover on this partition with Grub (Grub makes Clover boot via an ISO image).
I cloned my system using Hasleo WinToHDD (MBR to GPT option).
I changed the boot to start on the Clover HD and that's it.
The system boots Windows (8.x, 10, or 11) on the NVME SSD.
I am doing the same on an i7 socket 1150 system for my brother. He has a GTX 3060Ti that he used for mining and wants to use it for gaming.
Note: Burning the Clover ISO to a DVD may be easier. However, it makes the boot slower.
The only inconvenience, in my case, is having to manually select the system on the Clover boot screen.
I hope I have helped.
