The expanded B850 Series is engineered for gamers, creators, and PC

 Colorful Technology Company Limited, a leading brand in gaming PC components, gaming laptops, and HiFi audio products, today announced three new additions to its B850 motherboard family: the CVN B850M ARK FROZEN, BATTLE-AX B850M-PLUS S WIFI7, and COLORFIRE B850M-MEOW WIFI7. These new models bring enhanced power delivery, upgraded connectivity, and signature COLORFUL design identities to meet the performance needs of next-generation AMD Ryzen processors.

The expanded B850 Series is engineered for gamers, creators, and PC enthusiasts seeking powerful performance and distinctive visual design. A key highlight of this launch is the much-anticipated COLORFIRE MEOW Series motherboard for AMD Ryzen users, now built on the AMD B850 chipset and refreshed with a new white color scheme, cat-inspired accents, and the playful MEOW aesthetic that defines the series.

Each of the new B850 motherboards delivers robust support for AMD Ryzen 7000, 8000, and 9000 Series processors, high-speed DDR5 memory, and advanced thermal and aesthetic designs unique to their respective product lines.

COLORFIRE B850M-MEOW WIFI7 brings the signature MEOW aesthetic to the B850 lineup with a warm white painted heatsink armor and an iridescent nameplate featuring the minimalist MEOW logo. This model includes a custom BIOS themed after the MEOW series, adding a playful personality to technical system controls.

It features a 10+2+1 (55 A) power phase design, four DDR5 alloy memory slots, and a 5G + Wi-Fi 7 gaming network solution, allowing users to switch effortlessly between casual "cyber cat" computing and high-performance gaming.

Key Features

Custom frost heatsinks with full-cover condenser for improved cooling.

Custom MEOW-themed BIOS UI

10+2+1 enhanced power phase design with 55 A DrMOS and F.C.C ferrite chokes.

One PCIe 5.0 x4 M.2 slot plus one PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 slot.

Rear USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C (5 Gbps) and USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A (10 Gbps) high-speed ports.

Realtek 5G LAN + WiFi 7 with Bluetooth 5.4.

iGame Center lighting control support for radiator, fan, and memory effects.

Rear I/O one-click BIOS upgrade support.

Colorful has unveiled two new motherboards in its CVN series — the B850 “Battle-Ax” and “Meow” models — as part of its growing AM5 product stack. These boards are built around the B850 chipset and are compatible with AM5 socket CPUs from the Ryzen 7000 lineup and likely future Zen-based processors. By introducing these models, Colorful addresses a segment of the market that may not require high-end motherboards but still wants stable AM5 compatibility and modern platform essentials.

The “Battle-Ax” and “Meow” boards represent a tiered approach to AM5 motherboards. Rather than offering only high-end and feature-heavy boards, Colorful provides scaled options so that builders can match motherboard capabilities with system needs — whether a simple desktop, a budget gaming rig, or a capable mid-range build. Key differentiators likely include power delivery robustness, connectivity (USB, PCIe, storage), and design/style orientation, giving flexibility to choose what matters most for your build.

COLORFUL has expanded its AMD B850 motherboard lineup with three new models aimed at supporting “next-generation AMD Ryzen processors.” Hard to say if this is indeed a hint of what’s to come or simply something lost in translation, but the three models introduced today include CVN B850M ARK FROZEN, BATTLE-AX B850M-PLUS S WIFI7, and COLORFIRE B850M-MEOW WIFI7, each with different aesthetic approach and feature set.

The COLORFIRE B850M-MEOW WIFI7 extends the feline-themed MEOW lineup to the B850 platform, adopting a white color scheme with cat-inspired elements and a custom BIOS user interface. This micro-ATX motherboard uses a 10+2+1 stage VRM rated at 55A per stage, along with 5GbE LAN and Wi-Fi 7 for connectivity. The model also supports PCIe 5.0 and PCIe 4.0 M.2 storage, along with system lighting control through iGame Center, while offering one-click BIOS updates via the rear I/O.

The second model is the COLORFUL CVN B850M ARK FROZEN, positioned for users requiring stronger overclocking capability – it featuring a more robust 14+2+1 stage VRM with 80A DrMOS power, along with a hardware clock generator for base clock (BCLK) overclocking. It offers memory overclocking support up to DDR5-8400 speeds, and includes three M.2 slots plus four SATA ports for storage expansion. Connectivity is provided through 2.5GbE LAN, Wi-Fi 7, and Bluetooth 5.4, complemented by a front USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-C port with 30W power delivery.

Finally, the COLORFUL BATTLE-AX B850M-PLUS S WIFI7 introduces a revised black heatsink design with a layered, angular appearance, but are otherwise the same as the COLORFIRE MEOW model: this means it gets the same 55A 10+2+1 stage VRM, PCIe 5.0 and PCIe 4.0 M.2 support, 5GbE LAN and Wi-Fi 7 with Bluetooth 5.4 for connectivity. Like the other models, it supports lighting adjustments through iGame Center and provides a one-click BIOS update on the rear I/O.

Pokdepinion: Another motherboard with external clock generator – I suppose this is where AMD motherboard development are heading next.
