DeepSeek R1 Distill 14B is a 14.77B-parameter model. At Q4_K_M it needs about 9.7 GB of memory. The AMD RX 7900 XTX 24GB has 22 GB usable, so it fits entirely in memory. Expect about 26 tokens/sec (23–29), with the first token after 0.4 s for a short prompt. This estimate is based on community benchmarks of this exact setup.
| Quantization | File size | Memory | Generation | First token | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Q4_K_M | 9.0 GB | Fits | 26 tok/s | 0.4 s | Measured |
| Q8_0 | 15.7 GB | Fits | 38 tok/s | 0.4 s | Derived |
| FP16 | 29.6 GB | Partial offload | 6.3 tok/s | 1.4 s | Projected |
