I tried a test similar to the recent model-quant comparisons, but this time I focused only on:

DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731-IQ2_XS-Experts-Q8_0
model link bullerwins/DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731-GGUF · Hugging Face

Hardware

• RTX 3090 24 GB
• 128 GB DDR4 RAM
• Windows
• llama.cpp / llama-server

Prompt

Write a single HTML file with a full-page canvas and no libraries. Simulate a realistic Döner-style kebab skewer rotating vertically in front of a gas-powered heating element.

The resulting render is shown in the attached image.

Considering that most of the model is quantized to IQ2_XS, I was impressed that it produced a complete and working result. It is obviously not perfect, and some of the finer details and realism are lost, but the overall scene, animation and requested concept are still present.
