What happened to the U.2 ports? A couple mfg seem to still have them, others do not. At least not on every board. Is it going the same way as that ugly host plug style SATA Express? I actually liked U.2 and have an Intel 750 that is plenty fast. It isn't as fast as my 960 Pro but is a lot less cumbersome.

I normally grumble a little bit at launches due to lack of mATX or mITX options. However, this time the full 200-series lineup is fairly diverse: http://www.asrock.com/mb/index.us.asp

Kudos to you ASRock. Maybe I'll upgrade from my H170M-ITX to an H270M-ITX. I know, I'm so wild.

Z270M OC Formula is the only thing I really care about from AsRock's lineup, when do we get to see that?

Same boat as you guys, wish they already announced the OC Formula...
But that supercarrier does look tempting.
