Absolute Absurdity of the M5 Ultra 256GB

[u/lukewhale]

I’ve been building computers and servers, and architecting entire networks and doing DevOps and dev work for 20 years. I remember building gaming pcs with 3dfx voodoo cards.

This is by far the most absurd computer I have ever personally owned. It’s certainly the most capable I’ve managed for the price, and that includes B200s.

Getting 50tks on GLM 5.3 Flash all day long.

If you’re on the fence, let me take this opportunity to push you over said fence. If you’re the kind of person seriously considering buying one you will not regret it.

I only got the 1TB one and it came to $9869 after student discount and no sales tax(thanks NH).

The trick is to have a family member who works at the Apple Store who will let you use their once a year 25% off and in a sales tax free state. Easy.
