## Runs On

What it takes to serve DeepSeek-V3 (684.5B parameters): the memory its weights need at each precision, and the cheapest way to rent enough data-center GPUs to hold them.

Memory is the weights at that precision plus 20% for the runtime and a short context; a long context needs more. Prices are the lowest on-demand hourly rates in the [SAVRN Index](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus), read Oct 24, 2026.

## SAVRN's Notes on DeepSeek-V3

1,642.9 GB. That is what DeepSeek-V3 needs at 16-bit, so the cheapest Index setup there is seven MI325X cards at $14.00 per hour. At 8-bit it drops to 821.4 GB on three MI355X at $7.77; at 4-bit, 410.7 GB on two MI325X at $4.00. What makes a 684.5B-parameter text model livable is the routing: 256 experts, 8 active per token, so compute per token is a fraction of the memory you provision. The 163,840-token context takes whole document sets in one call.

Our facts carry no license for this model, so get the license text from the publisher before committing hardware. The weights are 185 files and 688.6 GB, so plan transfer and storage ahead of the cards. And run the math against the API: DeepInfra lists $0.32 per million input tokens and $0.89 output, so a $4.00-per-hour 4-bit rig needs a known token volume to pay off.

## Model Card

We present DeepSeek-V3, a strong Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language model with 671B total parameters with 37B activated for each token. To achieve efficient inference and cost-effective training, DeepSeek-V3 adopts Multi-head Latent Attention (MLA) and DeepSeekMoE architectures, which were thoroughly validated in DeepSeek-V2. Furthermore, DeepSeek-V3 pioneers an auxiliary-loss-free strategy for load balancing and sets a multi-token prediction training objective for stronger performance. We pre-train DeepSeek-V3 on 14.8 trillion diverse and high-quality tokens, followed by Supervised Fine-Tuning and Reinforcement Learning stages to fully harness its capabilities. Comprehensive evaluations…

## Questions About DeepSeek-V3

### How much GPU memory does DeepSeek-V3 need?

About 1642.8 GB at 16-bit and 410.7 GB at 4-bit: the weights (684.5B parameters) plus a working margin. A long context needs more.

### What is the cheapest GPU to run DeepSeek-V3 on?

At 16-bit, 7x MI325X from $14.00 an hour; at 4-bit, 2x MI325X from $4.00 an hour, at the lowest on-demand prices the SAVRN Index lists.

### What is DeepSeek-V3's context length?

163,840 tokens, from the maximum position embeddings in its published configuration.

### [DeepSeek-R1](https://savrn.com/models/deepseek-r1)

[DeepSeek](https://savrn.com/model-publishers/deepseek-ai)

We introduce our first-generation reasoning models, DeepSeek-R1-Zero and DeepSeek-R1. DeepSeek-R1-Zero, a model trained via large-scale reinforcement learning (RL) without supervised fine-tuning (SFT) as a preliminary step, demonstrated remarkable performance on reasoning. With RL, DeepSeek-R1-Zero naturally emerged with numerous powerful and interesting reasoning behaviors. However, DeepSeek-R1-Zero encounters challenges such as endless repetition, poor readability, and language mixing. To address these issues and further enhance reasoning performance, we introduce DeepSeek-R1, which incorporates cold-start data before RL. DeepSeek-R1 achieves performance comparable to OpenAI-o1 across…

[Silares](https://savrn.com/model-publishers/sail-ing-north)

We present DeepSeek-V3, a strong Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language model with 671B total parameters with 37B activated for each token. To achieve efficient inference and cost-effective training, DeepSeek-V3 adopts Multi-head Latent Attention (MLA) and DeepSeekMoE architectures, which were thoroughly validated in DeepSeek-V2. Furthermore, DeepSeek-V3 pioneers an auxiliary-loss-free strategy for load balancing and sets a multi-token prediction training objective for stronger performance. We pre-train DeepSeek-V3 on 14.8 trillion diverse and high-quality tokens, followed by Supervised Fine-Tuning and Reinforcement Learning stages to fully harness its capabilities. Comprehensive evaluations…

DeepSeek-V3-0324 demonstrates notable improvements over its predecessor, DeepSeek-V3, in several key aspects. - More aesthetically pleasing web pages and game front-ends - Enhanced report analysis requests with more detailed outputs - Increased accuracy in Function Calling, fixing issues from previous V3 versions In the official DeepSeek web/app, we use the same system prompt with a specific date. For example, In our web and application environments, the temperature parameter $T{model}$ is set to 0.3. Because many users use the default temperature 1.0 in API call, we have implemented an API temperature $T{api}$ mapping mechanism that adjusts the input API temperature value of 1.0 to the…

### [DeepSeek-V3.2](https://savrn.com/models/deepseek-v3-2)

[DeepSeek](https://savrn.com/model-publishers/deepseek-ai)

We introduce DeepSeek-V3.2, a model that harmonizes high computational efficiency with superior reasoning and agent performance. Our approach is built upon three key technical breakthroughs: 1. DeepSeek Sparse Attention (DSA): We introduce DSA, an efficient attention mechanism that substantially reduces computational complexity while preserving model performance, specifically optimized for long-context scenarios. 2. Scalable Reinforcement Learning Framework: By implementing a robust RL protocol and scaling post-training compute, DeepSeek-V3.2 performs comparably to GPT-5. Notably, our high-compute variant, DeepSeek-V3.2-Speciale, surpasses GPT-5 and exhibits reasoning proficiency on par…
