Apple Silicon macs share memory between CPU and GPU. A Mac mini M4 with 32GB unified memory can run models that require a $1,500 desktop GPU on Windows.
Buying tip: Unified memory is the key metric. 16GB handles 7B–13B models; 32GB+ handles 30B–70B. Mac Studio M4 Max starts at 36GB.
Each route pairs a scenario with a model and GPU that fit at Q4 VRAM, so you can jump to compatibility or continue with guided hardware decisions.
