After a year of self-hosting LLMs, I realized the real bottleneck isn’t the GPU
… 06 / 8 Hardware Apple Silicon chips like the M1, M2, and M3 are considered exceptionally well-suited for local LLM inference primarily because of what architectural advantage? …
You don't need an expensive GPU to run a local LLM that actually works

My RTX 5090 can't keep up with Apple Silicon on the biggest local LLMs, and I hate to admit it
… Apple's M-series chips don’t separate VRAM from system RAM. The CPU and GPU can access the same unified memory pool, and local LLM runtimes can use that pool without copying weights across PCIe. …
13 years later, the GTX Titan is still the most important GPU Nvidia ever made
… The original Titan used a cut-down variant of the massive GK110 chip, which was designed for Tesla accelerators. …
