How much VRAM do you need to run DeepSeek V4.1 Flash?
With an estimated 763.2B parameters, DeepSeek V4.1 Flash needs roughly 853 GB of VRAM in 8-bit (INT8), 426 GB in 4-bit, and 1706 GB in FP16, including a 20% overhead for activations and KV cache.
Which GPUs can run DeepSeek V4.1 Flash?
At 8-bit quantization, the most cost-effective option is 7x AMD Instinct MI250X (896 GB combined VRAM, around $17.50/hour on-demand). Higher-end cards like the NVIDIA B200 or AMD MI355X reduce the GPU count needed.
Can DeepSeek V4.1 Flash run on a single GPU?
No. Even in 4-bit, DeepSeek V4.1 Flash exceeds the memory of any single current GPU, so a multi-GPU cluster is required.
How much does it cost to serve DeepSeek V4.1 Flash in the cloud?
Renting 7x Instinct MI250X costs on the order of $17.50/hour, i.e. about $12,775/month running 24/7. Actual prices vary by provider and commitment; spot and reserved capacity can be significantly cheaper.
