Where two models differ, this table shows the difference and stops. LLM EU publishes no winner badge without a documented score for that task, and a missing figure stays missing instead of becoming a zero.

When to use it

DeepSeek R1 Distill Qwen 14B

Strengths

  • open weights are published on Hugging Face and can be downloaded without a vendor agreement
  • mit licence, so commercial self-hosting is permitted without a separate agreement

Limits

  • catalogue only — LLM EU does not run this model, and nothing on this card implies an LLM EU endpoint
  • no evaluation has been run by LLM EU
  • the published configuration records no context window, so the card carries none
  • at 14.8B parameters, self-hosting needs a single accelerator with enough memory for the weights

Tasks

Reasoning

DeepSeek-R1

Strengths

  • MIT licence for a 671B-parameter reasoning model
  • published reasoning traces in the base training recipe
  • strong maths scores for a January 2025 release

Limits

  • 671B parameters, so self-hosting is expensive
  • reasoning output is verbose and raises token cost
  • superseded by DeepSeek-V3.2 and V4-Flash for most workloads
