Phi-4 Multimodal Instruct — GGUF Quantizations
CPU-optimised GGUF quantizations of microsoft/Phi-4-multimodal-instruct produced with llama.cpp.
Model Summary
Phi-4-multimodal-instruct is a 5.6 B parameter lightweight multimodal foundation model by Microsoft that processes text, image, and audio inputs. The backbone LLM is Phi-4-Mini (3.8 B). This repository contains GGUF quantizations for local CPU and GPU deployment.

Available Files
| File | Quant | Size | BPW | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
phi4-mm-Q4_K_M.gguf |
Q4_K_M | 2.37 GB | 5.18 | CPU inference, 8 GB RAM systems |
phi4-mm-Q8_0.gguf |
Q8_0 | 3.90 GB | 8.00 | GPU/high-RAM systems, near-lossless |

Quantization Method
Quantized using llama-quantize from ggerganov/llama.cpp (build 8334).
llama-quantize phi4-mm-f16.gguf phi4-mm-Q4_K_M.gguf Q4_K_M 16
Source weights converted from the original safetensors using convert_hf_to_gguf.py.
Recommended Usage
Ollama (CPU — Intel NUC / low-power hardware)
# Pull and run (once uploaded to Ollama registry)
ollama run phi4-mm-nuc
# Or import from GGUF directly with a Modelfile:
ollama create phi4-mm-nuc -f Modelfile
ollama run phi4-mm-nuc
Modelfile for 8 GB RAM / no GPU:
FROM phi4-mm-Q4_K_M.gguf
PARAMETER num_ctx 8192
PARAMETER num_thread 8
PARAMETER num_gpu 0
PARAMETER flash_attn false
PARAMETER temperature 0.7
PARAMETER repeat_penalty 1.1
