I'm looking for recommendations on LLM equipment that the company supports with a budget.

221.70.***.***

The company says they will provide equipment to a few employees to study local LLM a bit.

The budget is 500 per person.

If the budget is exceeded, you can add personal money and purchase it.

If it were early this year, with 500 I could have bought a DGX Spark with a small amount of personal money...but now the lowest Lenovo price is 6,790,000 won...sigh...

As a result of contacting multiple places

  1. 4,800,000 won AI MAX 395+ 128GB mini PC

  2. 4,200,000 won Max Studio M4 Max 64GB ( It's been quite a while since 128GB stopped being available for order... 128GB is only available in M5 Max MacBook Pro, and the price is...........900 )

  3. DGX Spark with additional personal money ( approximately 1,800,000 won additional )

After searching multiple places....

AI MAX 395 has the advantages of Windows and x86, but RAM performance doesn't match the theory, which is unfortunate, and there are reviews saying it's the slowest

Max Studio has the best performance, but 64GB is awkward, and while it's useful for uploading models like 26b, 31b, there's feedback that it's unfortunate you can't upload something with large parameters

There was talk that DGX Spark is the most reliable. But I have to pay my own money ㅠㅠ

( I've been working with Linux for over 20 years, so there's no OS barrier... )

The purpose is

I won't be extracting images like with ComfyUI

I'm planning to try coding work with Local LLM (the company project has security issues... I can't use commercial services), stock market analysis (currently using openrouter GLM5.2...) and similar tasks.

Which one would be good? Please recommend...

Additionally, I have no intention of using graphics cards like R9700... the company already has 4 RTX 6000pro units.

    [KR] 제가 몇달 llm생활 하면서 느낀건 만능형은 맥 이고 amd ai max 395는 아직 rocm드라이버가 제대로 안 나와서 반쪽짜리 임미다 dgx spark는 오늘 받아서 사용중인데 395보다 파인튜닝 속도가 33% 더 빠름미다 arm인거 빼곤 맥과 스파크 둘 중 하나가 나을거 같아요 나중에 게임을 할 거면 amd 395도 괜찮을거 같슴미다


    [EN] After a few months of working with LLMs, what I've realized is that Mac is the all-purpose winner, and the AMD AI Max 395 still doesn't have proper ROCm drivers, so it's only half-functional. I got the DGX Spark today and I'm using it—fine-tuning is 33% faster than the 395. Aside from the ARM architecture, I think either Mac or Spark would be better. If you're planning to game later, the AMD 395 might be worth considering too.


    [ID] Setelah beberapa bulan mengalami kehidupan LLM, yang saya rasakan adalah Mac adalah tipe serba guna, sedangkan AMD AI Max 395 masih belum memiliki driver ROCm yang tepat jadi masih setengah jadi. DGX Spark baru saja saya terima hari ini dan sedang digunakan, kecepatan fine-tuning 33% lebih cepat dari 395. Kecuali masalah ARM, salah satu antara Mac dan Spark akan lebih baik. Jika nanti ingin bermain game, AMD 395 juga sepertinya akan bagus.
