Introducing the Nitro B850M Wi-Fi Model
Sapphire Technology has made headlines recently with the launch of its new Nitro B850M Wi-Fi motherboard, now available in China. Featuring a listing on JD.com, this addition sits alongside previous-generation B650 options, reinforcing Sapphire’s commitment to offering a range of competitive motherboards. Priced at 1299 RMB (approximately $179 USD), this model offers a modern solution for gamers and PC builders alike.
Design and Aesthetics
One of the notable aspects of the Nitro B850M is its design, which appears to align with its predecessor, the B650M. This visual continuity not only enhances its appeal but also creates a cohesive look for users choosing to upgrade their systems. It is interesting to note that the VRM patterning has drawn comparisons to the recently leaked premium-tier Radeon Nitro RX 9070 graphics card series, suggesting a strong design philosophy within Sapphire’s product line.
Performance Improvements
Although transitioning from the AMD B650 to B850 chipset generally results in minor benefits, the Nitro B850M does bring specific enhancements. Notably, memory overclocking support has improved from 7600 MT/s to 8000 MT/s. This advancement showcases Sapphire’s dedication to pushing boundaries in performance, while still ensuring affordability with the older Nitro B650M model priced at 899 RMB ($124 USD). As illustrated by the recent analyses from Videocardz, users can expect better overclocking potential when combined with supported memory kits.
