Mac minis are great for this. They're cheap-ish and they can run quite large models at a decent speed if you run it with an MLX backend.

- alganet 2y agomini _Pro_ are great for this, ones with large RAM upgrades. If you get the base 16GB mini, it will have more or less the same VRAM but way worse performance than an Arc. If you already have a PC, it makes sense to go for the cheapest 12GB card instead of a base mac mini.
