Can the NVIDIA DGX Spark run Mistral NeMo?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Mistral NeMo on the NVIDIA DGX Spark
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 547k | 8.3-9.9 t/s | ~0.3-0.4 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 621k | 16.6-19.8 t/s | ~0.6-0.7 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 653k | 29.7-35.3 t/s | ~1.1-1.3 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
FAQ
Can the NVIDIA DGX Spark run Mistral NeMo?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~29.7-35.3 tok/s and fits up to 653k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~1.1-1.3 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 653k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
