I have the 2tb version of this (bought for twice this price from B&H a couple years ago) and it still crushes video editing. Lots of power for video and music production. Small footprint, usually have it connected to a 1440p ultrawide via hdmi and the fans are silent when doing basic stuff.
Fans can spin up a bit under load (usually GPU related) which is probably the only thing I don't like as much, but fans only spin up heavy with lots of graphic core use (video exports, crappy sites with tons of ads or animations, etc). Most of the time they're quiet.
At this price, it's a good budget (but capable) audio and video production rig. Still cheaper than a base M4 Macbook Pro.
And only $1333 for the 4TB version? That's niiice imo
I asked the seller about the GPU in the 4tb/64gb config, and he confirmed it is the 32 Core. Killer deal.
Be careful. I asked what GPU config is in the remaining 2TB and 4TB models and I received a message stating it's the 24 core GPU. For anyone who hasn't purchased yet I would verify explicitly what you're getting with seller if it matters to you.
"This device should feature an M1 Max with a 10-core CPU and a 24-core GPU."

Hmm, that is interesting. Well, I will see what actually ships - I had already ordered the 4tb model, and asked them whether I would be receiving the 24 or 32 core, and the answer was "Thank you for your purchase.
The device has a 32 core GPU.
Thank you,
Cellular Professor".
I think it's still a win even if it's the 24 core - I will save more time in file/storage management going from 1tb to 4tb, but I'll keep my fingers crossed for the 32.

It's possible they have a mix and the message sent to you referred to the explicit one they're sending you. I'm not sure. I can only guess and report what I was told in response to my own query.

I agree it's a good deal regardless of GPU model!
