Keep in mind teraflops vary a lot between different GPU designs, even from the same company and generation.

If Apple tests are correct, the normal M4 is more efficient than M4 Pro and M4 Max.

Can it handle basic deep learning on a budget? With $600, should I get a dedicated GPU like RTX and build a PC, or is a Mac Mini enough?

In India, the Mac Mini with 10-core M4 costs 60k rupees. No Intel or AMD laptop/desktop matches its performance and stability at this price. Desktop with graphics might be a bit better but not overall.
