About
Local AI hardware guide introduction: Check whether it's worth buying, worth waiting for, or worth maintaining before making a purchase.
The Local AI Equipment Guide is a tool for Korean users to compare model load, prefill, token generation speed, power, and total cost before purchasing Macs and GPUs.
What to compare
Check the memory available for the actual model, not the display memory. It then shows the prefill for reading long inputs, the token generation rate followed by an answer, and the sustained load power and holding costs separately.
Who is this site for?
This site is for home users who are trying to narrow down what to buy between a finished Mac, an NVIDIA GPU, and a large integrated memory device. It's not an equipment store, it's a tool that provides comparisons and calculations.
How to read the numbers
Speed and price are displayed as expected ranges for each condition rather than as a single correct answer. The status of pre-release equipment and distributed configurations is differentiated, and reflected again once actual sales configurations and runtime support are confirmed.
