MSI releases new compact desktop PC with Nvidia RTX Spark and 6,144 CUDA cores
MSI has quietly released its first mini-PC featuring the Nvidia RTX Spark platform. For context, the company already offers Nvidia's 20-core CPU and 6,144-core GPU inside the Prestige N16 Flip (curr. $3,299 on Amazon). Now, this 16-inch laptop has been joined by the EdgeMesa N AI+, beating other RTX Spark-based mini-PCs to market like the AI Top Aero.
To recap, the EdgeMesa N complements Nvidia's RTX Spark platform with a vapour chamber and dual fans capable of extracting up to 140 W of performance. Additionally, MSI includes 10 Gigabit Ethernet, HDMI 2.1b and four USB Type-C ports providing 20 Gbps bandwidth apiece. Moreover, the mini-PC boasts Bluetooth 5.4 and Wi-Fi 7 connectivity.
Currently, we can only find the EdgeMesa N for sale in the US. However, MSI confirms that it plans to offer SKUs globally though, with dozens of regional versions listed on the company's website. For the time being, pricing information outside of the US remains unknown.
The EdgeMesa N starts at $4,699 in the US. While this pricing includes Nvidia's most powerful RTX Spark N1X chipset, it settles for 64 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 1 TB of PCIe Gen 5 storage. Please note that the former is soldered; MSI only includes a single M.2 2242 slot, too.
Alternatively, MSI has confirmed that its new mini-PC will be available with 128 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and a 4 TB SSD for $7,999. This SKU is out of stock at the time of publication, though. Please see MSI's website for more details about the EdgeMesa N.
