Can Titan Xp 12GB run DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B?

CUDA

Yes — the Titan Xp 12GB (12 GB GDDR5X) can run DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B. At Q4 with the default 8K context it needs ≈ 7.15 GB VRAM (weights 4.51 GB + KV cache 1.64 GB + 1 GB runtime overhead), which fits within 12 GB. Decode at Q4/8K: ≈ 42.5 tok/s (estimated, batch 1). FP16 needs ≈ 19.04 GB — does not fit on this card. Estimates come from memory-bandwidth math; rows tagged measured override estimates. Relative ranking is more reliable than absolute tok/s.

Fit & speed by quant and context

Quant	Context	VRAM needed	Fits?	tok/s (decode)
Q4	4K	6.33 GB	Yes	42.5 ± est.
Q4	8K default	7.15 GB	Yes	42.5 ± est.
Q4	32K	12.07 GB	No	119.6 ± est.
FP16	4K	18.22 GB	No	14.4 ± est.
FP16	8K default	19.04 GB	No	13.2 ± est.
FP16	32K	23.96 GB	No	8.3 ± est.

Fits = weights + KV(ctx) + 1 GB overhead ≤ 95% of VRAM. Measured anchors are context-agnostic; the fit verdict is recomputed per context. A missing tok/s means the model is far beyond this card (offload-only territory).
