Thanks!

If the M3 can run 24/7 without overheating it's a great deal to run agents. Especially considering that it should run only using 350W... so roughly $50/mo in electricity costs.

Out of curiosity, if you dont mind: what kind of an agent would you run 24/7 locally?

I'd assume this thing peaks at 350W (or whatever) but idles at around 40w tops?

I’m guessing they might be thinking long training jobs as opposed to model use in an end product if done sort.
