Lawyer upgrades private AI server for DeepSeek V4.1 Flash with enhanced precision

A lawyer has upgraded his private AI server, which utilizes eight NVIDIA V100 GPUs, to run DeepSeek V4.1 Flash with improved precision. The system now operates at near-NVFP4 precision, incorporating 1TB of RAM and an NVIDIA RTX 3090, while also resolving previous crashing issues attributed to a faulty power supply unit. This upgrade allows for a larger portion of the model's "experts" to be loaded at a higher precision, though it results in a slight decrease in token output speed. AI
