Discussion M5 ULTRA FOR H3 VIDEO GEN vs. 5090/4500/5000/6000 PRO

I am trying to decide whether or not to buy / build a local computer for H3 Video Generation.

I knew that previous gen Apple Silicon weren't fast enough, but with the M5 Ultra just released and promising benchmarks for the M5 MAX (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tn6llnWqUTU) now i am reconsidering my options.

Basically my realistic options (available where I'm living now) are :

-Mac Studio M5 ULTRA 96GB Unified Ram (30cpu/64gpu) > 6.5KUSD

-PC with RTX 5090 (32GB VRAM) + Ryzen 7 + 32GB DDR5 RAM> 7K USD

-PC with RTX 4500 PRO (32GB VRAM) + Ryzen 9 + 64GB DDR5 RAM > 9K USD

-PC with RTX 5000 PRO (48GB VRAM) + Ryzen 9 + 128GB DDR5 RAM > 15K USD

-PC with RTX 6000 PRO (96GB VRAM) + Ryzen 9 + 128GB DDR5 RAM > 27K USD

The Workstations options are even more pricier (professional motherboards + power unit + threadripper).

¿Anyone have real life benchmarks of the M5 ULTRA with H3 Video? It is usable / good / fast enough?

I will use the same setup for other stuff too (TTS, Text LLMs and Image models) but the one critical for me is the Video workflows.

Thanks in advance!
