Sapphire launches Edge AI mini PCs powered by AMD Ryzen AI CPUs

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.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
