Maybe he wants really fast or large AI models inside immich? (I just run the defaults on my CPU, works for me)

  I'm not sure why you would need large AI models for Immich, the face detection is pretty cheap and will run on 10 year old hardware without a blip. I think the decision comes primarily on how much data you would like to store for Immich, if you want to go cheaply, a 100 bucks used laptop will do the job, if you have too much data, a NAS will be more suitable (and you are certainly not going to get a mac where you can plug multiple internal hard drives for the price of a NAS)

    Not for faces, but the CLIP model for the context search https://docs.immich.app/features/searching/ https://docs.immich.app/features/searching/ That needs to be in (v)ram for searches.

      That can be yeah but personally I wouldn't pay 3 times the amount you would pay normally just for that feature in particular.

        Yeah, me neither. Fast enough for me on CPU.
