# Can I run DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen 32B on AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (24GB)?

Updated: 2026-06-15

**Yes, but tight.** Fits at Q4_K_M (~22.1 GB of ~23 GB usable) but with little headroom, close other apps.

- Model: 32B, Q4_K_M 19.85 GB
- Device: 24 GB vram, ~23 GB usable for weights
- Needs ~22.1 GB at Q4_K_M; recommended quant: Q4_K_M
- Best tool on Windows: LM Studio
- Command: `ollama run deepseek-r1:32b`

Estimate. Method: weights + KV cache + ~0.8GB overhead. Sources: https://ollama.com/library/deepseek-r1, https://huggingface.co/bartowski/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B-GGUF, https://github.com/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1.
