The model fits in shared memory, but shared-memory bandwidth is now the real limiter.
Fit does not mean dedicated-VRAM speed
Unified or shared memory can make a model technically fit, but sustained tokens per second may still trail a discrete high-bandwidth GPU with less total memory.
Shared-memory contention still exists
The OS, browser, and inference runtime all compete for the same physical memory pool, so real-world headroom is less forgiving than raw capacity suggests.
Prioritize bandwidth, not only capacity
If this workload feels slow, the next useful step is often a GPU tier with materially faster memory bandwidth rather than only a small bump in capacity.

Yes, NVIDIA DGX Spark 128GB can run DeepSeek LLM 67B at Q8_0 quantization (Tight fit). The recommended Q4_K_M requires 47.6 GB which exceeds available memory, but at Q8_0 it needs only 91.4 GB. Expected decode speed: 2.7 tok/s.
DeepSeek LLM 67B (67B parameters) requires approximately 47.6 GB at Q4_K_M quantization. On NVIDIA DGX Spark 128GB, it fits at Q8_0 using 91.4 GB.
The recommended quantization is Q4_K_M, but on NVIDIA DGX Spark 128GB the best fitting quantization is Q8_0, which uses 91.4 GB.
On NVIDIA DGX Spark 128GB, DeepSeek LLM 67B achieves approximately 2.7 tokens per second decode speed with a time-to-first-token of 70832ms using Q8_0 quantization.
For coding workloads, DeepSeek LLM 67B on NVIDIA DGX Spark 128GB receives a F grade with 2.0 tok/s and 4K context.
On NVIDIA DGX Spark 128GB, DeepSeek LLM 67B can safely use up to 4K tokens of context at Q8_0 quantization. The model's official context limit is 4K, but available memory constrains the safe maximum.
Prioritize bandwidth, not only capacity. If this workload feels slow, the next useful step is often a GPU tier with materially faster memory bandwidth rather than only a small bump in capacity.
Not always. NVIDIA DGX Spark 128GB can often fit larger models thanks to unified memory, but a discrete GPU with dedicated high-bandwidth VRAM may still decode faster once the model fits. For this combination, the important distinction is capacity versus sustained throughput.
