Frequently Asked Questions
How much VRAM does DeepSeek V4 Flash Vision Uncensored need?
DeepSeek V4 Flash Vision Uncensored requires 201.1 GB of VRAM at Q4_K_M, or 670.2 GB at BF16.
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 304.6B × 4.8 bits ÷ 8 = 182.8 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 18.3 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.
VRAM usage by quantization
Can NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 run DeepSeek V4 Flash Vision Uncensored?
No — DeepSeek V4 Flash Vision Uncensored requires at least 142.4 GB at Q2_K, which exceeds the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090's 32 GB of VRAM.
What's the best quantization for DeepSeek V4 Flash Vision Uncensored?
For DeepSeek V4 Flash Vision Uncensored, Q4_K_M (201.1 GB) offers the best balance of quality and VRAM usage. Q5_K_M (238.8 GB) provides better quality if you have the VRAM. The smallest option is Q2_K at 142.4 GB.
VRAM requirement by quantization
★ Recommended — best balance of quality and VRAM usage.
Can I run DeepSeek V4 Flash Vision Uncensored on a Mac?
Yes — Mac Pro M2 Ultra (192 GB) and 3 other Macs can run DeepSeek V4 Flash Vision Uncensored, the smallest at Q3_K_M. Apple Silicon uses unified memory, so the model shares RAM with the system. At Q4_K_M you need at least 201.1 GB of usable unified memory (RAM minus macOS overhead), from Mac Studio (M3 Ultra, 256GB).
Can I run DeepSeek V4 Flash Vision Uncensored locally?
