Sapphire has officially launched its EDGE AI series, which was first showcased earlier this year at technology industry events. The systems correspond to what was already expected in terms of design and specifications, featuring Ryzen AI 300 processors based on Strix Point or Krackan Point.
The company released all the details. Or rather, almost every detail, because she forgot to include prices. The press release leaves each “Suggested Price” line blank, which suggests that final values were not defined at launch.
This means that Both prices and regional availability are expected to be announced later.

Features
Each model in the EDGE AI line (370, 350 and 34) comes with an AMD Ryzen AI 300 Series processor equipped with an integrated NPUoffering up to 50 TOPS of AI performance. The systems feature Radeon graphics, support for DDR5 SO-DIMM memory and M.2 NVMe storage.
Connectivity includes 2.5G Ethernet, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth and multiple I/O ports.
| Model | Core / Threads | Max Frequency (Boost) | Base Frequency | Cache Total | Graphic Template | NPU (Until) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AMD Ryzen™ AI 9 HX 370 | 12 / 24 | 5.1 GHz | 2.0 GHz | 36 MB | AMD Radeon™ 890M | 50 TOPS |
| AMD Ryzen™ AI 7 350 | 8 / 16 | 5.0 GHz | 2.0 GHz | 24 MB | AMD Radeon™ 860M | 50 TOPS |
| AMD Ryzen™ AI 5 340 | 6 / 12 | 4.8 GHz | 2.0 GHz | 22 MB | AMD Radeon™ 840M | 50 TOPS |
With dimensions of 117 × 111 × 30 mm, the chassis is compact and does not require tools for installation, in addition to having a magnetic top cover for quick updates.
All configurations are shipped as barebone systems, allowing users install their own memory, storage, and operating system.
Sapphire positions the EDGE AI series as a platform for both home and professional use, ranging from education and office automation to content creation. The systems are also listed as “Copilot+ PC compatible.”
Price expectation
Without Sapphire’s official pricing, it remains to try and get the price of the EDGE AI right based on the competition. It is clear that it should not cost R$ 1,377.31 for a Grasep i5 Mini PC. Even more so because just an AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 costs at least R$4,399.99.
This means that the EDGE AI is expected to be more expensive than the Machenike Mini GTX AMD (R$ 4,999.90) and the Mini PC NUC Barebone (R$ 6,869.61). However, as it is a barebone system, prices may vary depending on the company providing configuration options for memory and storage.
