Can the NVIDIA DGX Spark run NVIDIA Cosmos 3?
Yes โ here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
NVIDIA Cosmos 3 on the NVIDIA DGX Spark
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | no | โ | โ | โ |
| Q8 | yes | 152k | 3.1-3.7 t/s | ~0.1-0.1 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 238k | 5.6-6.6 t/s | ~0.2-0.2 (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 NVIDIA Cosmos 3?โถ
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~5.6-6.6 tok/s and fits up to 238k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~0.2-0.2 tok/s.
How much context fits?โถ
At Q4, up to about 238k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
