Today, Sapphire officially launches its new EDGE AI line-up of compact mini PCs. Powered by AMD Ryzen AI 300 series processors, these systems combine highly-efficient multi-core CPUs with up to 96GB of DDR5 memory and up to three M.2 SSDs, delivering up to 50 TOPS of AI performance in an ultra-small form factor.
There will be three Sapphire Edge AI systems – the Edge AI 340 ships with a Ryzen AI 5 340 processor, while the Edge AI 350 ships with a Ryzen AI 7 350 CPU. At the top of the pile is the Edge AI 370, which ships with AMD's top of the line Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor. As a reminder, here are the specs for each of those CPUs:
| Model | Core / Threads | Boost Freq (up to) | Base Freq | Total Cache | Graphics Model | NPU (Up to) | |
| AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 | 12 / 24 | 5.1 GHz | 2.0 GHz | 36MB | AMD Radeon 890M | 50 TOPS | |
| AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 | 8 / 16 | 5.0 GHz | 2.0 GHz | 24MB | AMD Radeon 860M | 50 TOPS | |
| AMD Ryzen AI 5 340 | 6 / 12 | 4.8 GHz | 2.0 GHz | 22MB | AMD Radeon 840M | 50 TOPS |
Each of the three Sapphire Edge AI systems ships with support for up to three M.2 SSDs and dual-channel DDR5 SO-DIMM support, so they can be packed with up to 96GB of DDR5 memory. Other features include built-in WiFi/Bluetooth, two HDMI 2.1 ports, two USB Type-C ports, four more USB Type-A ports (two on the front, two in the rear), an ethernet port and an audio jack.
These systems support both Windows and Linux operating systems, making them suitable for a wide variety of educational and business environments. You can learn more about the Sapphire Edge AI systems HERE.
