Can the AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT run DeepSeek LLM 7B?

Yes โ€” here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.

Q8 yes 47k 46.1-56.3 t/s ~3.6-4.4 (slow)
Q4 yes 71k 82.3-100.6 t/s ~6.4-7.9 (slow)

Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.

FAQ

Can the AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT run DeepSeek LLM 7B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~82.3-100.6 tok/s and fits up to 71k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~6.4-7.9 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 71k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
