A new AI-PC designed for local LLM operation has been released, though its performance is noted as slow compared to GPU-based systems. The device supports large models like Qwen3.5-122B and DeepSeek V4 Flash, with speeds reaching up to 27.16 tokens/sec for Qwen3.5-122B and around 12 tokens/sec for DeepSeek V4 Flash. Despite advancements in memory speed and capacity, the AI-PC's bandwidth is significantly lower than high-end GPUs, leading to the conclusion that cloud-based solutions may be more practical for general users.
