Colorful BATTLE-AX B650M-E PRO V14 AM5 DDR5 Micro-ATX Motherboard
The Colorful BATTLE-AX B650M-E PRO V14 AM5 DDR5 Micro-ATX Motherboard moves AM5 builders onto DDR5 with the AMD B650 chipset, supporting Ryzen 7000, 8000, and 9000 series processors. Its two-slot DDR5 design and dual M.2 layout make it a strong fit for compact gaming and creator PCs where a full four-slot board is unnecessary.
Key Specifications
- AMD B650 chipset with AM5 socket for AMD Ryzen 7000, 8000, and 9000 series processors
- 2 DDR5 memory slots supporting up to 96GB, with DDR5-7600 (OC) as the fastest listed speed and XMP plus EXPO plus dual-channel support
- 2 M.2 slots for 2242/2260/2280 SSDs over PCIe 4.0 x4, one on the CPU channel and one on the PCH channel, plus 4 SATA 6Gb/s interfaces with RAID 0, RAID 1, and RAID 10 support
- 1 PCIe 4.0 x16 slot and 1 PCIe 4.0 x4 slot
- Rear I/O with 4 USB 2.0 ports, 2 USB 3.2 Gen 1 5Gbps Type-A ports, DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI 2.0 each up to 4K 60Hz, PS/2, Gigabit LAN, a BIOS update button, and 3 audio jacks
- Realtek RTL8111K Gigabit Ethernet controller and Realtek ALC897 audio supporting up to 5.1 channels
- 256M UEFI BIOS with multiple language support, in a 244mm x 235mm Micro-ATX layout
10+2+1 Phase Power with a Pump Header and ARGB Support
Power delivery uses a 10+2+1 phase design with Dr. MOS 55A power stages and FCC ferrite inductors, aimed at stable operation under sustained loads. Onboard headers include a water cooling pump pin, two system fan pins, and two 5V 3-pin ARGB pins, so both air and liquid cooling setups and addressable lighting can be wired directly to the board.
- Fit an AM5 Ryzen 7000, 8000, or 9000 series processor and install DDR5 memory up to 96GB across the two slots.
- Use the CPU-channel M.2 slot for the primary PCIe 4.0 x4 SSD and the PCH-channel slot for a second fast drive.
- Install a graphics card in the PCIe 4.0 x16 slot and keep the PCIe 4.0 x4 slot for an additional card.
- Update firmware through the rear BIOS update button, and connect cooling through the pump header or fan pins as the build requires.
