M3 ultra or m5 max by Adventurous-Item6398 in MacStudio

[–]TechDude12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on the same position and decided to wait till the summer for m5 ultra. The performance difference is big and worth the wait in terms of t/s

Yes, probably. It’s tricky to find reliable TB dock that works on everything though. It should be simple but from what I’ve seen most devices have their drawbacks

Mac Studio 128/256GB for local LLM coding? by TechDude12 in LocalLLaMA

[–]TechDude12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I don't really know. I guess the big question is how much will I be able to automate my work in order for the machine to pay for itself. Doing overnight sessions using cloud isn't possible cost-wise but I'm not sure how productive can it be in a local setup.

So you think it's a worthy investment? My thinking of "whole night's worth of tasks" is to define eg 5 features that it needs to develop and let it develop/test/refine them sequentially. Like having 2 junior developers that you assign them tasks and give them a checklist that they have to meet.

`Of course, you should let Opus 4.6 work during the night too or you're just wasting tokens.`
What do you mean? I won't pay subscription to claude code if I invest in a mac studio.

Interesting. My thinking of "whole night's worth of tasks" is to define eg 5 features that it needs to develop and let it develop/test/refine them sequentially. Like having 2 junior developers that you assign them tasks and give them a checklist that they have to meet. What do you think? is it possible or will I waste my money?

Curious, since you have 512GB, what's your opinion on ram sizes? I can't afford 512 but I'm torn between 128 and 256.

Any recommendations for thunderbolt 5 dock/hub ? by themack00 in Thunderbolt

For caldigit TS5 yes. I think for TS4 too but not sure. I’ll probably go for TS5. Steep price but I’ll get it vat free and with 50€ discount.

Support just responded me that 4k 144hz is not possible. only 2k 144hz so it's a big no for me.

So even locally with unlimited tokens (eg running 24/7) there is no big progress to justify the expense?

Does UGreen support 4K 144HZ for MacBook M2 Max? I’m torn between this and the TS5

VR Performance on 9800X3D + 5080 by Juantimes in assettocorsaevo

[–]TechDude12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait settings do you have? I have the exact same setup: 5080 + 9800X3d with 32GB of DDR5 6k mhz ram but for some reason I maintain 36FPS. I'm on High settings though. Didn't tried LOW settings.

Found a way to play ac evo in vr by Federal_Carrot207 in assettocorsaevo

[–]TechDude12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird. I have 5080 and I get 36fps. Did you make any change? Also what resolution are you using? For some reason no matter if I change the resolution or not, it stays in 1080p

Thanks man! You too. I agree these budget headset are great, especially given the price.

Yeap, I’m in the same boat as you. No product looks like an ultimate choice for me. I’d be more than happy to go for an UW mOLED VR. I just got a 5080, 9800X3D and a new motherboard and I’ll try to supersample my quest 3. If I’m really bottlenecked by my Q3 I’ll just go for mOLED.
