NVIDIA DGX Spark vs Intel Arc Pro B60 24GB for local LLMs
57 reports on the NVIDIA DGX Spark and 5 on the Intel Arc Pro B60 24GB
Which is faster for local LLMs?
Nobody has reported the same model at the same quant on both cards yet, so there's no measured head-to-head. Memory bandwidth, which caps how fast a card can write, is 1.7x higher on the Intel Arc Pro B60 24GB (273 GB/s on the NVIDIA DGX Spark, 456 on the Intel Arc Pro B60 24GB).
