MemryX MX3

MemryX
documented / Overall score: 3.0

Edge AI accelerator from MemryX in the United States, built on a dataflow architecture where each MX3 chip provides about 6 TOPS and an M.2 2280 M-key module packs four of them for up to 24 TOPS at roughly 6 to 8 watts with passive cooling. It connects over PCIe Gen3 and supports 4, 8 and 16-bit weights alongside BFloat16, with no model-zoo lock-in.

Adoption

3 medium confidence
3.0

The module retails at $149, and independent reviews, a 2025 industry award and an active GitHub organization point to growing but emerging traction.

Capability

3 high confidence
3.0

Four MX3 chips on the M.2 module combine for up to 24 TOPS, with support for 4, 8 and 16-bit weights plus BFloat16. On-chip parameter capacity limits how large a model can run, and the figures come from launch coverage rather than a vendor specification table.
