Weights only, an estimate: leave room for the KV cache. Method

Too big for one 8×80 GB node at any precision

About 959 GB at INT4, 1.92 TB at FP8, 3.84 TB at BF16: weights only, so leave room for the KV cache. Every expert must be resident, so total parameters count.

The story so far

Weights, every dated article, and repo commits on one rail.

10 dated articles and 23 repo commits so far

Teal is the weights (2026-04-22), amber triangles are 10 dated articles (each links to it), grey ticks are repo commits.

What people built on it

46 derivatives on the Hub. Which build to run, by runtime: the most downloaded in each class.

46 derivatives on the Hub, most of them quantized

From the Hugging Face model tree; quantized builds in teal, fine-tunes, merges and adapters in greys.

Hardware fit

3 estimates

Hardware fit ESTIMATE

Weights-only memory for DeepSeek-V4-Pro: params × bytes/param × 1.2 overhead. KV cache and activations are extra. How this is computed.

BF16 (2 bytes/param)3.84 TB · Cluster (≥640 GB)
FP8 (1 byte/param)1.92 TB · Cluster (≥640 GB)
INT4 (0.5 bytes/param)959 GB · Cluster (≥640 GB)

Weights only (params × bytes/param × 1.2 overhead); KV cache and activations extra. MoE: all experts must be resident, so total parameters count.
