Someone asked me about this last week and I realized I should just write it down properly instead of explaining it in DMs for the hundredth time.
How I compared them
Same tasks, same timeframe, same hardware. I ran each option for at least one full week before forming an opinion. Quick impressions are misleading — things that seem great on day 1 can become annoying by day 5, and vice versa.
The numbers
I hate vague advice. Here are actual numbers from my setup. Your setup will differ, but at least you have a reference point instead of someone saying “it depends” for the fifth time.
The verdict
There is no single best option. There is a best option for YOUR specific situation. I have tried to give you enough context to make that call yourself instead of just telling you what to pick.
That is everything I know about this topic. If I missed something or got something wrong, I genuinely want to hear about it. Drop a comment or find me on agntai.net, agntbox.com.
