Unified Memory: A Breakthrough for Large-Scale Models
A distinct advantage of the AI Edge is its memory configuration, which effectively removes VRAM bottlenecks. The system utilizes up to 128GB of on-board LPDDR5X 8000 Unified Memory, designed for low-latency speed. Critically, up to 96GB of this high-speed memory can be dynamically and exclusively allocated to the GPU. This massive capacity allows the AI Edge to comfortably handle the memory requirements of large-scale model inference, achieving an output of 15 Tokens per second (TPS) when running LLMs up to 109B parameters, supporting the deployment of advanced AI applications directly on the user's desktop with superior performance and data security.

Optimized for Workflow and Efficiency
To ensure sustained peak performance, the AI Edge features MSI's Glacier Armor thermal solution. This design utilizes advanced heatsinks on key components to significantly enhance thermal efficiency and long-term reliability during intensive AI workloads.
Furthermore, the system is bundled with a powerful local AI application debuting at CES 2026: the MSI Edge AI app, designed for productivity. This multimodal software leverages the device's on-local computing resources. It features powerful capabilities for essential productivity tasks, such as generating meeting notes and creating mind maps, all while maximizing data privacy. Additionally, the software integrates advanced Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) technology, enabling users to securely process and query local datasets for highly contextual and data-specific output. For instance, users can simply import personal financial records to instantly analyze and optimize their asset allocation portfolios, gaining tailored wealth management insights without sensitive data ever leaving the device.
