NVIDIA shared a guide from @MiaAIlab on setting up local AI using DGX Spark. The guide details the optimal model combinations and performance when chaining 1 to 3 DGX Spark units.
- 1 Unit: Recommends DeepSeek v4 Flash (1M ctx, 26 tok/s) and Qwen 3.6 series.
- 2 Units (Sweet Spot): Runs DeepSeek v4 Flash 0731 (82 tok/s) and several full-omni models with 1M context.
- 3 Units: Supports GLM-5.2 with Vision, offering the best local intelligence currently available.
