Another con is it only works on Silicon Macs.
- Vicinity9635 3y agoApple Silicon* I presume? This could honestly be the excuse I need (want) to order an absolute beast of a macbook pro to replace my 2013 model.
- quitit 3y agoIf it's just for hobby/interest work, then just a heads-up that even the 1st generation Apple Silicon will turn over about one image a second with SDXL Turbo. The M3s of course are quite a bit faster. The performance gains in recent models and PyTorch are currently outpacing hardware advances by a significant margin, and there are still large amounts of low-hanging fruit in this regard.
- wayfinder 3y agoIf you want an absolute beast, especially for this stuff, you probably want Intel + Nvidia. Apple Silicon is a beast in power efficiency but a top of the line M3 does not come close to the top of the line Intel + Nvidia combo.
- Vicinity9635 3y agoWell this would just be the excuse. I'm typing this on a Ryzen 5950X w/32 GB of RAM and a 4090. So I guess I already have the beast?
- NorwegianDude 3y agoI guess EPYC and a few H100s is the next big step, at a much higer price point...
- cchance 3y agoGet M1 macbook, throw your ryzen with 4090 in a closet and use it as a remote API endpoint for comfyui lol
