R1 isn’t really runnable with a home rig. You might be able to run a distilled version of the model though!
Tell that to my home rig currently running the 671b model...
That likely is one of the distilled versions I’m talking about. R1 is 720 GB, and wouldn’t even fit into memory on a normal computer. Heck, even the 1.58-bit quant is 131GB, which is outside the range of a normal desktop PC.
But I’m sure you know what version you’re running better than I do, so I’m not going to bother guessing.
It's not. I can run the 2.51bit quant
You must have a lot of memory, sounds like a lot of fun!
You're absolutely right, I wasn't trying to get that in-depth, which is why I said "lightweight and optimized," instead of "when using a distilled version" because that raises more questions than it answers. But I probably overgeneralized by making it a blanket statement like that.
