Can the FuriosaAI RNGD run DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5B?

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

DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5B on the FuriosaAI RNGD

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 597k 273.9-332.9 t/s ~7.3-8.9 (slow)
Q8 yes 624k 547.8-665.7 t/s ~14.6-17.8 (slow)
Q4 yes 636k 978.1-1188.8 t/s ~26.1-31.7 (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 FuriosaAI RNGD run DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~978.1-1188.8 tok/s and fits up to 636k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~26.1-31.7 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 636k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
