FAQ & Reference

Frequently Asked Questions: DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash (552B Engram MoE) on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti (16GB GDDR7)

How much VRAM does DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash (552B Engram MoE) need on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti (16GB GDDR7)?

At standard 4-bit quantization (Q4_K_M) with 32K context, DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash (552B Engram MoE) requires 345.59 GB of total VRAM (weights + KV cache + CUDA runtime overhead).

What inference speed will DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash (552B Engram MoE) achieve on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti (16GB GDDR7)?

Based on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti (16GB GDDR7)'s 896 GB/s memory bandwidth, expected decode speed is approximately 0 tokens per second.

Can I expand context beyond 32K tokens?

Each additional 32K tokens of context requires additional KV cache memory. For longer context windows, consider 8-bit or 4-bit KV cache quantization.
