Each laptop is scored against your selected workload using a weighted blend of NPU TOPS, llama.cpp tokens/sec on a 13B Q4 model, RAM, sustained thermal score, battery life and weight. Weights shift based on workload — local LLM heavily favors RAM and tokens/sec; travel favors weight and battery; coding balances thermals and RAM.
Budget is a hard ceiling — laptops above your stated price are excluded entirely, then remaining models are re-ranked. Raise the slider to see premium options like the MacBook Pro 14" M4 Max enter the list.
Pick 7B for fast assistants on 16GB machines, 13B for the sweet spot of quality vs. speed on 32GB+ machines, and 30B+ only if you have a Mac with unified memory or a discrete GPU with 16GB+ VRAM.
Tokens/sec and sustained thermal scores come from the AIPC.computer benchmark engine — measured on llama.cpp (Metal/CUDA/Vulkan) with Llama 3 13B Q4_K_M and a 15-minute Cinebench R24 retention test. NPU TOPS are vendor-reported.
