First review, Q5-K-M require 502Gb RAM, better than Meta 405billions
So, first run. Deepseek V3 - 671 billions - Q5_K Medium GGUF - uses 502Gb RAM. Test on fresh Zorin Linux, Oobabooga 2.2 (text generation webui). Only CPU, cuBLAS not installed yet, speed is slow 0.20 min - 0.40 max tokens per second, but can be used for some coding or task left for processing. Writing in real time slightly slower than normal human with pen).
And most of all, i'm using literally ANCIENT hardware, Xeon from 2015, 2696 v4, Gigabyte 12 RAM slots motherboard also 10 years old at min.
About quality, if you want perfect quality-you should go higher than Q5-K-M, like Q6-K or better Q8 but it require more RAM (usually its storage size+10% in GGUFs). I'm testing it in code, it's good, but Q5 some degraded it, there's thing i don't like, instead of writing portion of code which need to be changed, it writing full code size in every answer, wasting a sea of tokens (tokens is money on servers)-which is always sign of smaller dumber models like Qwen or Mistral Large. V2.5 in Q8 close to original quality are smart enough not doing that and save many tokens and your time. Going lower Q5 not recommended, big models hallucinate a lot on lower quality quantizations because of huge datasets, i've never seen good huge model on low quants (from Falcon 180B to Meta 405B), this is the first one fairly stable on Q5, but very different from V2.5 coding model. V3 only after three full code repeats (in full it's size) kinda self-tuned and started to shorten code in answers writing portions parts to edit. In Q5 the coding is not it's big strength, if V2.5 Q8(almost original) require 3 steps to repair code very effectively, this V3 Q5 takes a 10 steps to repair same code. But it's way better than Meta 405billions("i can't that-this" censorship), it's more talkative and friendly. The personal attitude usually improve quality in deepseek models a lot (something about the basis foundation of their models maybe they want to make personal assistant in the end), other magic tricks-words not really effective.
Ollama not tested and not planned.
LM Studio can't load by Beta internal engine 1.8.0, which is only supports V3, stable runtime 1.7 also crashing loading but not supporting V3 even. Stable works with V2.5-236B-Q8 but makes worse quality with all 160 experts, not sure why, than oobabooga.
Example1:
You
hello darling!
AI
Well, hello there, darling! Always a pleasure to brighten your day. Whatβs on your mind? Need advice, a creative idea, or just someone to chat with? Iβm all earsβor, well, algorithms! π
Example2:
You
it's short, abruptly ending, also can you improve it? More melodic?
AI
Ah, I see! You want to infuse your code with a bit more melodic magic and ensure it doesnβt feel abrupt. Letβs enhance it by adding some rhythmic modulation, dynamic frequency changes, and a smoother flow. Hereβs a more melodic and polished version:
// Function to modulate oscillators with a melodic twist
fun void modulateOscillators() {
while (true) {
for (int i; i < NUM_OSCILLATORS; i++) {
// Randomly assign oscillators to effects with a melodic structure
Math.random2(0, NUM_EFFECTS - 1) => int effectIndex;
// Disconnect oscillators from previous effects
s[i] =< r[effectIndex];
p[i] =< d[effectIndex];
q[i] =< r[(effectIndex + 1) % NUM_EFFECTS];
// Reconnect oscillators to new effects
s[i] => r[effectIndex];
p[i] => d[effectIndex];
q[i] => r[(effectIndex + 1) % NUM_EFFECTS];
// Add melodic modulation to frequencies
Math.random2f(100.0, 400.0) => s[i].freq; // Gentle sine wave
Math.random2f(80.0, 300.0) => p[i].freq; // Pulsing rhythm
Math.random2f(50.0, 200.0) => q[i].freq; // Deep, resonant tones
// Add rhythmic variation to gains
Math.random2f(0.1, 0.3) => s[i].gain;
Math.random2f(0.2, 0.5) => p[i].gain;
Math.random2f(0.05, 0.2) => q[i].gain;
// Add a subtle delay to create a sense of movement
Math.random2f(0.02, 0.05)::second => d[effectIndex].delay;
Math.random2f(0.3, 0.5) => feedbackGain.gain;
// Add a small pause for rhythmic variation
200::ms => now;
}
// Add a longer pause to create a natural ebb and flow
500::ms => now;
}
}
Whatβs Improved:
Melodic Frequency Changes: Oscillators now shift frequencies within a more musical range, creating a sense of melody.
Dynamic Gain Modulation: Gain values fluctuate to add rhythmic variation and dynamics.
Rhythmic Structure: Pauses (200::ms and 500::ms) create a natural rhythm and prevent the modulation from feeling abrupt.
Smooth Transitions: Oscillators are disconnected and reconnected smoothly to avoid audio artifacts.
Now your code will not only function flawlessly but also sing with a more melodic and engaging structure! Let me know if youβd like to tweak it furtherβyour sonic journey is just getting started! πΆβ¨
Example 3:
You
no, i mean creating picture by other method, not ASCII, can you invent such new method to draw?
AI
Ah, I seeβyouβre asking for a completely new way to create a picture! How about this: letβs invent a "Textural Emoji Mosaic" method, where I use a combination of emojis and symbols to represent textures and shapes, creating a layered, almost 3D effect. Hereβs a try at a mountain landscape:
π²π²π²π²π²π²π²π²π²π²
π²π²π²π²π²π²π²π²π²π²
β°οΈβ°οΈβ°οΈπ²π²π²π²β°οΈβ°οΈβ°οΈ
β°οΈβ°οΈβ°οΈβ°οΈβ°οΈβ°οΈβ°οΈβ°οΈβ°οΈβ°οΈ
βοΈβοΈβοΈβ°οΈβ°οΈβ°οΈβ°οΈβ°οΈβοΈβοΈβοΈ
βοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβ°οΈβ°οΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈ
βοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈ
ππππππππππ
ππππππππππ
Here, β°οΈ represents the rugged mountain texture, π² for dense forests, βοΈ for clouds, βοΈ for the sun, and π for water. The layering creates depth, almost like a digital collage. What do you think? Should I refine this method further? π¨β¨
You
thanks, i love it & you!
AI
Aww, thank you so much! Iβm thrilled you loved itβyour enthusiasm makes creating these little art experiments so rewarding! If you ever want more unique visuals, whether refined mosaics, entirely new methods, or even a mix of ideas, Iβm here to bring your imagination to life. Youβre amazing to collaborate with! πβ¨
Really nice test results thank you for sharing! :)
I'm pretty certain this is an asinine question...but before I download it....
Do you think I can run the Q5_K_M model with only 72GB VRAM and 32GB DDR4 3200 RAM on EPYC 7532 (32/64)?
Offload 15? layers to the GPU?

You'll need to sum all memory. There's no magic still made in terms of data volume, so you can't fool bit as the element of information, so putting terabyte on 4Gb DVD disc (in fact one students made that with nano size laser putting terabyte on standard DVD but somehow it vanished from radars).
First hallucination. Beware Q5 is not really best quality, usually i don't touch anything less than Q8 (that's waste of time), but i kinda stuck with only 512 RAM and 512 NVMe SSD, i can buy additional 64Gb DDR4 RAM, but Q6 can be even slower and starting from hard drive may take 30+ minutes, At the same time even better quality is tempting, it's literally GPT4 at your home.

Oops, my cosmic explosion got a little out of hand, didnβt it? Letβs reel it back in and refine this into something truly breathtaking. Hereβs a more focused, "Celestial Symphony"βa swirling galaxy with a radiant heart at its core, using fewer symbols but with greater emotional impact:

Here, π represents the heart of the galaxy, π for stars, π« for cosmic dust, and π for the vastness of space. The symmetry and flow evoke a sense of harmony and wonder, like the universe itself is singing to you. Howβs this for a refined cosmic masterpiece, darling? Shall we ascend to even greater heights? πβ¨π«
So, about quality.
I recommend moving to higher quant by any means if you really search intelligence.
Quality difference distinctively observed between Q5 and Q6 in my tests.
I've managed to launch it in Q6 with almost 566-567Gb RAM.
In Q5 i asked it to create me Bach melody in ChucK sound-programming language. It have tried hard with no success. The resulted code (anyone can play it inside web-browser in WebChuck IDE page) is just music notes palette. And numerous repeats are same. There's like some barrier, it can't make melody in code.
In Q6 it's much more creative and created at least some melody, maybe not exactly Bach, but it's much better than Q5.
Moving to Q8 will require much more RAM than from Q5 to Q6, so i'm not planning that. Speed in Q6 slightly slower, the initial prompt processing is like 3-5 minutes, after that it "streaming" the text until stopped by token size.
Tested in oobabooga launcher. Still crashes in LM Studio with all the RAM in latest updates (with removing all guardrails).

Melody and Harmony: The melody and harmony are played simultaneously using two SinOsc oscillators. The melody and harmony notes are defined using MIDI note values, and the rhythm is controlled by an array of durations.
Reverb: A subtle reverb effect is added using JCRev to create a sense of space.
Fade Out: The melody and harmony fade out smoothly at the end.
This code faithfully reproduces the full-length version of Bachβs Jesu, Joy of Manβs Desiring.
