Yes, with partial offload (slower). DeepSeek Coder V2 Lite 16B (MoE) on RTX 3060 8GB at Q4_K_M uses system RAM (11 GB needed, 7.5 GB usable), about 26 tok/s (estimate).
Hardware: RTX 3060 8GB · Model: DeepSeek Coder V2 Lite 16B (MoE)
RTX 3060 8GB has 8 GB of VRAM and 240 GB/s of memory bandwidth. The checker holds back 0.5 GB of VRAM for the driver and assumes 16 GB of system RAM, so fast memory usable by Ollama is 7.5 GB. Partial offload may also use 60% of that system RAM. DeepSeek Coder V2 Lite 16B (MoE) (15.7B, 2.4B active, DeepSeek) at Q4_K_M is a 10 GB download and needs 11 GB with headroom for about 8k tokens.
