Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1/issues/144

I encountered some problems when using Vulcan. On the one hand, the reasoning speed was slow; on the other hand, some models could not occupy all the video memory, but started to use the shared video memory when the video memory was not full (especially when I was using the model "Deep Seek-R1-Distill-QWEN-32b-Q4 _ K _ M"). Can more optimization be made for Vulcan?

Im having the same issue. but im using Rx 6600 with deepseek-r1:1.5b model. Its only using CPU and RAM and not utilizing the GPU or VRAM at all. Can anyone help?

Vulcan? Don't be stupid. Vulcan is graphic rendering API. If u want support for AMD gpus its ML api called ROCm or something. It's like dumber version of nvidia cuda. Using AMD for ML works are dumb anyway 😂
