NVIDIA DGX Spark 128GB is a compact Grace Blackwell personal AI system with 128 GB of coherent unified memory and the NVIDIA CUDA software stack preinstalled. It is aimed at developers who want to prototype, fine-tune, and run much larger local models than fit on 24 GB or 48 GB consumer GPUs, but without jumping straight to a rack-scale server.

Mejores modelos para esta GPU
What will limit you first
El modelo cabe en memoria compartida, pero ahora el verdadero límite es el ancho de banda de esa memoria.
Que quepa no significa velocidad de VRAM dedicada
La memoria unificada o compartida puede hacer que el modelo quepa, pero los tok/s sostenidos pueden quedar muy por debajo de una GPU discreta con memoria dedicada de alto ancho de banda.
La memoria compartida sigue teniendo contención
El sistema operativo, el navegador y el runtime de inferencia compiten por el mismo pool físico de memoria, así que el margen real es menos generoso de lo que sugiere la capacidad bruta.
Best upgrade itinerary
Prioriza ancho de banda, no solo capacidad
Si este workload se siente lento, la siguiente mejora útil suele ser una GPU con mucha más velocidad de memoria, no solo un pequeño aumento de capacidad.

Flux.1 Dev also runs natively for state-of-the-art image quality. For video, LTX Video 2.3 can generate short clips. Check the AI Capability Matrix above for detailed compatibility.
NVIDIA DGX Spark 128GB is excellent for AI image generation. With 109 GB of usable memory, it runs all major diffusion models including Flux.1, SDXL, and Stable Diffusion 3.5 at full precision. You can generate high-resolution images quickly and even handle video generation models.
Yes, NVIDIA DGX Spark 128GB with 109 GB of usable memory can run Qwen 3.5 27B at Q8 (near-lossless, ~28.9 GB) or even FP16 (~55.4 GB) depending on your context needs. This setup provides an excellent experience with this model. Use Ollama or vLLM for best results.
With 109 GB VRAM on NVIDIA DGX Spark 128GB, use Q8_0 for most models — it is near-lossless and you have the memory for it. For 70B+ models, Q6_K offers excellent quality. Reserve Q4_K_M for 100B+ models or when you need maximum context length.
NVIDIA DGX Spark 128GB has enough memory for many local LLMs, but bandwidth still matters a lot for real speed. Once a model fits, a faster-memory GPU can feel significantly better than a slower setup with similar capacity.
