Minimum reference configuration for Ollama DeepSeek R1
combination Test host configuration one: Intel 12-core 24-thread, 64 GB memory, GT730 2GB video memory graphics card (can run deepseek-r1:1.5b, 7, 70b models)
Test host configuration two: AMD 6-core 12-thread CPU, 32GB memory, GT710 GB video memory (can run deepseek-r1:1.5b, 7b models)
Test results:
1. It is not necessary to have a high graphics card to run the Ollama DeepSeek R1 combination. High-end graphics cards are no longer essential for running AI models. Mainstream desktop PCs with-level graphics cards can also run them.
2. Ollama does not support CPU hyper-threading technology, which results in the use of only 12 physical of the processor. The CPU usage can only reach 50%.
3. When the deepseek model is started and remains in the operating system after completing the computing, it does not occupy CPU and graphics card resources, but only occupies fixed memory.
