What the numbers mean
By our fit rule about 435.2GB of the 512GB is usable for a model (85% of 512GB). A model fits when its 4-bit weights × 1.15 plus 2GB for context and runtime stay under that. That covers 16 of the 16 open models we list, up to GLM-5.3-Flash (about 194.8GB of weights at Q4_K_M). At 8-bit, 16 fit.
Measured on this chip (public results, not our own tests): Qwen3.8 27B 49.2 tok/s (MLX 4-bit, M5 Ultra benchmark repo) and Qwen3.6 35B-A3B 126 tok/s (MLX 4-bit, M5 Ultra benchmark repo).
The US price has been $22,299 at all 8 daily checks since Oct 29, 2026. It is a list price we check by hand, last confirmed Oct 29, 2026, so it only moves when we re-check it. The EU price has been €25,179 at all 8 daily checks since Oct 29, 2026. It is a list price we check by hand, last confirmed Oct 29, 2026, so it only moves when we re-check it.
Other machines we track with the same chip (Apple M5 Ultra 36/80 (256GB)): Mac Studio M5 Ultra 80-core GPU ($10,799 / €12,529). We use one set of public results per chip, so they show the same speeds here; the differences we can measure are price and stock.
