    Hey guys,
    On suggestions of the forums I was going to order a SF-19 USB 3.0 for my R4 so I could have all my peripherals connected at once. I am only able to find the USB 2.0 version with the gray trim (SGA-4000-KKNF1). I found one seller on Amazon advertising (SGA-6000-KKYF1) but they shipped me the USB 2.0 version instead so I am working with them. I honestly don't care about the USB 3.0 functionality. I was just looking forward tot he black trim complimenting my stealth black M17x. Best Buy, New Egg, and Cooler Master all say its not available. Would they discontinue the USB 3.0 version but continue to manufacture the older version?

    People complain on how the SF-19 is too expensive. I guess by using USB 2.0 and less color, CM can trim the price down,
