can it run

Can the CPU-only (DDR5 tuned / 4-channel) run DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash?

NO

170.9 GB vs 30 GB usable — does not fit

~30GB usable · CPU (DDR5) · model file 168.9GB · 552B+196B Engram MoE

~3.2–5 tok/s (active-expert estimate)

computed roofline: 179.2 GB/s × 0.45–0.70 efficiency window / 25.3GB (Q4_K_M) — bands, never points.

MoE: file is 168.9GB (that decides fit) but only ~82.8B of experts activate per token (~25.3GB streamed) — band below is the active-expert estimate, optimistic; community MoE rows run several× the naive bandwidth math
