I would normally never upgrade so soon after getting an M1 but running local LLMs is extremely cool and useful to the point where I'd want the extra RAM and CPU to run larger models more quickly.
- yieldcrv 2y agoI have a 64gb M1 Max and already do that but yes, I was looking at and anticipating the max RAM on the M4 as well as the max memory speed 128gb and 546GB/s memory bandwidth I like it, I don't know yet on an upgrade. But I like it. Was hoping for more RAM actually, but this is nice.
- astrostl 2y agoI'm bumping from a still-excellent M1 MAX / 64GB to M4 MAX / 128GB, mostly for local GenAI. It gives me some other uplift and also enables me to sell this system while it's still attractive. I'm able to exhaust local 7B models fairly easily on it.
