On a 192 GB Mac, 12 catalog models run fully on the GPU at an 8,192-token context. The most capable is MiniMax-M3 at UD-Q2_K_XL (needs ~148.2 GiB). Pick a smaller model or a lower quant for more headroom.
Figures assume a 192 GB unified-memory Mac (one pool shared by CPU and GPU), judged at an 8,192-token context. Speeds depend on the specific chip — see the GPU pages.
MiniMax-M3 at UD-Q2_K_XL · 427B params · needs ~148.2 GiB
One command to run it (llama.cpp):

Derived live from the fit engine + catalog at an 8,192-token context. "Fits in" is the modelled VRAM the sweet-spot quant needs (weights + KV cache + overhead). Speed depends on your specific card — check a GPU page or the calculator.
