Frequently Asked Questions

How much VRAM does DeepSeek V4 Flash DSpark Abliterated Uncensored need?

DeepSeek V4 Flash DSpark Abliterated Uncensored requires 109.1 GB of VRAM at Q4_K_M, or 363.6 GB at BF16.

VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead

Weights = 165.3B × 4.8 bits ÷ 8 = 99.2 GB

KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 9.9 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)

Fit ratings and hardware model lists check this model with room for a 16K-token context, which needs a little more memory.

Can I run DeepSeek V4 Flash DSpark Abliterated Uncensored on a Mac?

Yes — Mac Studio (M3 Ultra, 96GB) and 20 other Macs can run DeepSeek V4 Flash DSpark Abliterated Uncensored, the smallest at Q2_K. Apple Silicon uses unified memory, so the model shares RAM with the system. At Q4_K_M you need at least 109.1 GB of usable unified memory (RAM minus macOS overhead), from Mac Pro M2 Ultra (128 GB).

Can I run DeepSeek V4 Flash DSpark Abliterated Uncensored locally?

Yes — DeepSeek V4 Flash DSpark Abliterated Uncensored can run locally on consumer hardware. Popular tools include Ollama, LM Studio, and llama.cpp.

How fast is DeepSeek V4 Flash DSpark Abliterated Uncensored?

At Q4_K_M, DeepSeek V4 Flash DSpark Abliterated Uncensored can reach ~44 tok/s on AMD Instinct MI350X. Speed depends mainly on GPU memory bandwidth. Real-world results typically within ±20%.

tok/s = (bandwidth GB/s ÷ model GB) × efficiency

Example: NVIDIA B200 → 8000 ÷ 109.1 × 0.65 = ~48 tok/s
