NVIDIA DGX Spark 64GB Launches at $4,999 Amid Memory Shortage

NVIDIA is launching a 64GB configuration of its DGX Spark mini PC on October 23, 2026, priced at $4,999. This new model, available through partners like ASUS, Acer, and Dell, offers the same GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip as the 128GB version but with half the unified memory. While it supports up to 100-billion-parameter models, it costs $1,000 more than the 128GB model's original launch price, reflecting the ongoing global memory shortage.

NVIDIA DGX Spark 64GB Launches at $4,999 as 128GB Price Surges to $6,950

NVIDIA is launching a new 64GB configuration of its DGX Spark local AI workstation on October 23, 2026, priced at $4,999. This move follows significant price hikes for the original 128GB model, which now costs approximately $6,950. The new unit retains the GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip and full software stack but halves the unified memory, supporting up to 100-billion-parameter models. Users can cluster two 64GB units to reach 128GB total memory and support larger models, though this requires an additional purchase.

NVIDIA Launches 64GB DGX Spark at $4,999 Amid Memory Shortage

NVIDIA is releasing a 64GB variant of its DGX Spark desktop AI system on October 23, 2026, priced at $4,999. This new configuration addresses the ongoing memory shortage by offering a lower entry point than the 128GB model, which has risen to $6,950. The 64GB unit retains the GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip and supports up to 100-billion-parameter models, with clustering capabilities to expand capacity.

NVIDIA Launches 64GB DGX Spark at $4,999 as Memory Costs Drive 128GB Model to $6,950

NVIDIA is releasing a new 64GB variant of its DGX Spark AI workstation on October 23, 2026, priced at $4,999. This move follows significant price hikes for the original 128GB model, which now exceeds $6,000 and is reported to reach $6,950. The new configuration retains the GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip and full software stack but halves the unified memory. While the 64GB unit supports up to 100-billion-parameter models, two clustered units can pool memory to 128GB and support 200-billion-parameter models with a 1.7x performance boost. The launch is a response to rising memory costs, offering a lower entry point for developers while the 128GB version becomes significantly more expensive.

Nvidia Launches 64GB DGX Spark at $4,999 to Counter Memory Shortage

Nvidia has released a new 64GB configuration of its DGX Spark local AI workstation, priced at $4,999, to address rising memory costs. This new model offers half the unified memory of the original 128GB version but retains the same GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip and software stack. The move allows developers to run up to 100-billion-parameter models locally, with the option to cluster two units for 128GB total memory. The original 128GB model has seen significant price increases, reaching nearly $7,000, due to the ongoing memory crunch.

Mac Studio vs DGX Spark: Fast Setup and CUDA-Heavy Depth in Local AI

Mac Studio vs DGX Spark: Fast Setup and CUDA-Heavy Depth in Local AI

Two premium local AI workstations are contrasted: Mac Studio (M5 Ultra) wins on quick setup, ease of use, and strong token-generation memory bandwidth (up to 256 GB unified memory); DGX Spark trades setup complexity for far stronger concurrent workloads, large-context handling, and CUDA/TensorRT compatibility across a distributed memory setup. Mac Studio starts at $5,499 and is generally easier and cheaper for workloads under ~128 GB, while DGX Spark (two-node) runs around $9,449 with higher total costs and maintenance. For lightweight, fast deployments, Mac Studio; for CUDA-heavy research and scalable multi-node tasks, DGX Spark. Future hardware updates may shift the balance.

AMD Bets on the AI Edge with Ryzen AI Halo Mini PC Against DGX Spark

AMD launched the Ryzen AI Halo Mini PC at $3999, packing a Ryzen AI MAX+ 395 SoC (Zen 5, 16 cores, 50 TOPS NPU), 128 GB RAM, 2 TB storage in a compact 5.9"x5.9"x1.7" chassis with ROCm 7.2.2 and a Dev-ready software stack. It positions itself as a cheaper, capable alternative to NVIDIA’s DGX Spark (around $4679), claiming higher token throughput and strong local AI economics (potentially breaking even in ~6 months vs cloud costs) while teasing a future MAX+ 495 with 192 GB RAM for even larger models in Q3 2026. Availability starts in June.

AMD Unveils Agent Computers to Run AI Locally, Not Just in the Cloud

AMD pitches a new product category called “Agent Computers” for locally running AI agents on powerful desktops/mini PCs powered by Ryzen AI Max+ (e.g., 395) and up to 128GB RAM, arguing private, always-on AI work can live on consumer/SME hardware. The company cites OpenClaw and showcases HP Z2 Mini G1a, Corsair AI Workstation 300, and Framework Desktop as examples, aiming to compete with Nvidia’s DGX Spark/Station. The concept emphasizes privacy and on-device AI workloads that don’t need hyperscale data centers, with models up to 200B parameters possible given high memory support.
