Just to defy @Bubblewhale's opinion, DEFINITELY THE CORSAIR GAMING LOGO. It looks super sexy. No sarcasm intended.

Define R5, well the Mini version of it. Though if Fractal were to say that they weren't going to be releasing an updated Mini I would actually buy the ATX version.

This is the only case.

You're kidding. Practically every 775 board had one IDE port.

DDR4 memory and Kaveri APU's, both are disappointing in their infancy stage, but it was neat to see ground-breaking tech hit the shelves (especially Kaveri, which AMD had announced in concept form shortly after they took over ATI, namely Heterogeneous uniform memory access... but took forever to bring it to life).

So do I. But not LGA 775

The LGA 775 board in the C2D PC across the room from me is SATA only, as well as the Pentium D rig downstairs and the P4 HT rig in the basement.

The GTX 970. The performance to price is fantastic and as with the 700 series the stock heatsink looks fantastic. 

With anything else, it would have to be the release of the Logitech G402 mouse. That thing is fantastic.  

What do they know of England, who only England know?

Yeah right. You probably just never found the port.

900-series most definitely. Was very interested in how efficient these cards would be after the release of the 750 Ti.

No wonder. It's an OEM board. Any non OEM board has IDE.
