Can I run DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017 (MoE) in Australia?

Not on a single device we track at Q4_K_M. You would need multiple GPUs or a smaller quantisation.

Nothing we track fits.

The tok/s figures are bandwidth-based estimates for this model. Where a device has a measured benchmark, the estimate is calibrated to that run. They are not measurements. Methodology.

Graphics card + system RAM (MoE experts in RAM)

Mixture-of-experts models only read a few experts per token, so llama.cpp can keep the expert weights in system RAM and everything else on the GPU (e.g. --n-cpu-moe / -ot exps=CPU). That lets a 12–32GB card run a much bigger model. All figures below are estimates (Q4_K_M, 8k context, dual-channel DDR5-5600). How we estimate.

No graphics card we track can run it even with 128GB of RAM.
