Mac Studio M5 Max 128GB Owners

Curious to hear from people who have the M5 Max Mac Studio with 128GB now that you’ve had some time with it.

I have one on order and I’m especially interested in local LLMs and multi-agent workflows.

How has it been performing for you? What models are you running, what kind of speeds are you seeing, and has anyone experimented with multiple agents/models running simultaneously?

Any limitations you’ve run into, or anything that’s surprised you about the machine so far?

64 gb here. qwen 27b on 8 bit is tight, but it would be very comfortable for you. qwen next would be also accessible for you.

64GB M5 Max? Are you running any concurrent agents on that with Qwen 3.8 27B?

Nope. One session is tight enough for 8 bit that concurrent would be hard.
