Hardware: RX 9070 XT 16GB · Model: DeepSeek R1 Distill Qwen 32B
RX 9070 XT 16GB has 16 GB of VRAM and 640 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 15.5 GB. Partial offload may also use 60% of that system RAM. DeepSeek R1 Distill Qwen 32B (32.8B, DeepSeek) at Q4_K_M is a 20 GB download and needs 22.2 GB with headroom for about 8k tokens.
