Curious, what do you use it for?
- jonhohle 7mo agoProbably an Electron app or two.
- storus 7mo agoHuge local thinking LLMs to solve math and for general assistant-style tasks. Models like Kimi-2.5-Q3, DeepSeek-XX-Q4/Q5, Qwen-3.5-Q8, MiniMax-m2.5-Q8 etc. that bring me to Claude4/GPT5 territory without any cloud. For coding I have another machine with 3x RTX Pro 6000 (mostly Qwen subvariants) and for image/video/audio generation I have 2x DGX Sparks from ASUS.
- ganoushoreilly 7mo agoWe must be twins, i've got the same three working in a cluster. I was really excited to see where the GB300 Desktops end up, with 768gb ram but now that data is leaking / popping up (dell appears to only be 496gb), we may be in the 60-100k range and that's well out of my comfort zone. If Apple came out with a 768gb Studio at 15k i'd bite in a heart beat. https://www.dell.com/en-us/lp/dell-pro-max-nvidia-ai-dev https://www.dell.com/en-us/lp/dell-pro-max-nvidia-ai-dev
- storus 7mo agoYeah, I didn't want to spend more than 50k for local inference stack. I can amortize it in my taxes so it's not a big deal but beyond it would start eating into my other allocations. I might still get M5 Ultra if it pops up and benchmarks look good, possibly selling M3 Ultra.
