What is a good setup for building medium size deep learning using Tensorflow with the Metal plugin
I’m in the enviable position of having a nice wad of cash to spend on a new Mac setup. Since Tensorflow and PyTorch are now both supported by Metal, at least on my 16gb MacBook Air M1 I’m more than tempted by either a basic Mac Studio or a top end 16” MacBook with enough to add a Mac Studio monitor, mouse and keyboard on top. Both will take in excess of 48Gb and a 1Tb SSD. So here’s the rub which model and Ram combination is best? I could max out at 96gb or even 128gb but I suspect that would be wasteful. Would 48Gb on a MacBook 16” cut the mustard?
