Olares One vs NVIDIA DGX Spark
Last updated
Choose Olares One ($4,999) for a ready-made server that runs models up to about 32B fast and handles image and video generation. Choose DGX Spark ($6,950) for 70B-120B models on NVIDIA's software: 128 GB of memory against 24 GB.

Choose Olares One if
- You serve a household or team and want accounts, apps and remote access without setup.
- Your models are up to about 32B, where its GPU is fast (157 tokens/s on a 30B model in Olares' own test).
- You generate images or video (CUDA; a FLUX.1-dev image in 8.3 s after the first in Olares' test).
- You want to spend $1,951 less.
Choose the other if
- You need 70B-120B models on one box: 128 GB holds them, 24 GB doesn't.
- You develop on NVIDIA's DGX software stack.
- You accept 273 GB/s memory, which makes large models answer slowly.
Questions & answers
Is Olares One faster than DGX Spark?
No like-for-like benchmark was read for this page. Olares' own test gave 157 tokens/s on a 30B model on Olares One; DGX Spark's 273 GB/s memory limits tokens per second on large models. Above about 32B, DGX Spark wins because Olares One can't hold those models on the GPU.
Which is better for image generation?
Olares One: CUDA on a discrete-class RTX GPU, and Olares publishes 8.3 s per FLUX.1-dev image after the first. Both support CUDA; no like-for-like image benchmark of DGX Spark was read for this page.
