Cat-Themed PC Parts Are Here: Meet the Adorable MEOW Motherboards and BIOS
Earlier this year, I mused about the need for more creative and visually striking PC components—something beyond the predictable RGB lighting and dark industrial aesthetics. Enter the MEOW series from Colorful/Colorfire, which delivers exactly what I’ve been craving: a motherboard covered in cartoon cats, accompanied by an equally feline-inspired BIOS update. Yes, it’s as delightful as it sounds.
The MEOW lineup, showcased by VideoCardz.com, is designed for AM5 processors and supports Ryzen 9000 chip features, but its charm lies in the whimsical design. The BIOS itself is adorned with cat graphics, blending playfulness with functionality. A walkthrough of the MEOW 760M BIOS on Bilibili reveals a genuinely endearing interface, proving that you can have a motherboard that’s both cute and entirely practical. It’s a refreshing departure from the usual hyper-serious tech visuals.
Beyond the Motherboard: A Full Cat-Themed Build
The MEOW series doesn’t stop at motherboards. Matching components, like an orange cat-themed MEOW RTX 4060 graphics card, elevate the customization options to a whole new level. Combine these with a pre-built micro-ATX PC featuring a matching case, and you’ve got a cohesive feline-inspired setup. Unfortunately, acquiring these parts outside of China is a challenge. The motherboards and accessories are hard to find on international markets, and reseller platforms like eBay often come with steep markups.
Still, the MEOW series exemplifies what’s possible when hardware design prioritizes creativity. It’s a step toward diversifying PC aesthetics, making the process of building or owning a computer more personal and fun. For now, these parts remain a niche treasure, but their popularity could inspire broader adoption of unique designs in the PC hardware space.
