Frequently Asked Questions

How much VRAM does DeepSeek V4 Pro Qwen3.5 4B UNCENSORED Heretic need?

DeepSeek V4 Pro Qwen3.5 4B UNCENSORED Heretic requires 3.2 GB of VRAM at Q4_K_M, or 9.6 GB at BF16. Full 262K context adds up to 5.2 GB (8.4 GB total).

VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead

Weights = 4.5B × 4.8 bits ÷ 8 = 2.7 GB

KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 0.5 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.

KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 5.7 GB (at full 262K context)
