Facts
A fun compare:
- M5 Ultra Mac Studio with 256GB memory, 8TB storage is $14,299
- NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 with 96GB is street price $14,999. Sill need a $3K to $5K system to run it.
The NVIDIA card supports full CUDA and will be 2-4x faster at prefill, but for many people the Mac Studio will great for local AI development.
Also one big advantage of the studio is you can have it at your desk or in your office, most people don’t want the NVIDIA system’s noise and heat in their office.
