I can't imagine why anyone would run it unquantized, but there are some laptops with the more than 70GB of RAM that would be required. It's not that it can't be done... it's just that quantizing to at least 8-bit seems to be standard practice these days, and DeepSeek has shown that it's even worth training at 8-bit resolution.
