DeepSeek-V3 GPU Requirements
DeepSeek-V3 needs about 1.6 TB of GPU memory at 16-bit, 821 GB at 8-bit and 411 GB at 4-bit: its 684.5B parameters plus a 20% working margin. The cheapest setup at 16-bit is 7x MI325X from $14.00 an hour, about $10,220 a month around the clock. None of the 9 accelerators the SAVRN Index prices holds it on one card at 16-bit.
Every Accelerator, Every Precision
How many cards of each accelerator the SAVRN Index prices it takes to hold DeepSeek-V3, and what that many cards cost an hour at the lowest listed on-demand price. Memory needed: 1.6 TB at 16-bit, 821 GB at 8-bit, 411 GB at 4-bit.

Running It Around the Clock
| Precision | Cheapest setup | Per hour | Per month (730 hours) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 16-bit | 7x MI325X (Vultr) | $14.00 | $10,220 |
| 8-bit | 3x MI355X (Vultr) | $7.77 | $5,672 |
| 4-bit | 2x MI325X (Vultr) | $4.00 | $2,920 |
One copy of the model on rented cards, busy or idle. Serving more users at once takes more copies or more memory for their contexts.
Questions
How much VRAM does DeepSeek-V3 need?
About 1.6 TB at 16-bit; about 821 GB at 8-bit; about 411 GB at 4-bit: the weights plus 20% for the runtime and a short context. A long context needs more.
What is the cheapest GPU setup to run DeepSeek-V3?
At 16-bit, 7x MI325X from $14.00 an hour, at the lowest on-demand price the SAVRN Index lists.
Can DeepSeek-V3 run on a single H100?
No. An H100 has 80 GB, and DeepSeek-V3 needs 411 GB even at 4-bit, so it takes more than one card.
Memory is the weights at that precision plus 20% for the runtime and a short context. Prices are the lowest on-demand hourly rates in the SAVRN Index, read Sep 18, 2026. Setups beyond eight cards, one server, are not listed.
