Can I Run Qwen 3.5 122B-A10B on NVIDIA DGX Spark?
Written by Jakub Rusinowski · Last updated July 21, 2026
Yes. Qwen 3.5 122B-A10B needs 77.3 GB at 8K context (73.7 GB weights + 3.6 GB KV cache/overhead) at Q4_K_M and the NVIDIA DGX Spark has 128 GB, leaving about 50.7 GB of headroom, at roughly 29 tok/s (estimated) with room for up to 128K of context.

Assumes an 8K-token context with an f16 KV cache, on an estimated architecture — this model publishes no config we can read. A longer window needs more; a quantized KV cache needs less. “Max context” is the largest window that still fits in 128 GB. Figures are estimates from parameter count, quantization and memory bandwidth — the analyzer lets you tune KV-cache quant and context.
Context costs VRAM too. At Q4_K_M on the NVIDIA DGX Spark: 8K 77.3 GB · 32K 85.9 GB · 128K 120.1 GB. Every window this model publishes still fits 128 GB.
What to do next
Nothing to change — run it at Q4_K_M. If you want more capability, check whether the next size up also fits.
