Usage

If you are unsure how to use GGUF files, refer to one of TheBloke's READMEs for more details, including on how to concatenate multi-part files.

Provided Quants

(sorted by size, not necessarily quality. IQ-quants are often preferable over similar sized non-IQ quants)

Link	Type	Size/GB	Notes
GGUF	imatrix	0.1	imatrix file (for creating your own quants)
GGUF	i1-IQ1_S	8.2	for the desperate
GGUF	i1-IQ1_M	8.8	mostly desperate
GGUF	i1-IQ2_XXS	10.0
GGUF	i1-IQ2_XS	11.0
GGUF	i1-IQ2_S	11.7
GGUF	i1-IQ2_M	12.6
GGUF	i1-Q2_K_S	12.7	very low quality
GGUF	i1-Q2_K	13.7	IQ3_XXS probably better
GGUF	i1-IQ3_XXS	14.2	lower quality
GGUF	i1-IQ3_XS	15.2
GGUF	i1-Q3_K_S	16.0	IQ3_XS probably better
GGUF	i1-IQ3_S	16.0	beats Q3_K*
GGUF	i1-IQ3_M	16.6
GGUF	i1-Q3_K_M	17.7	IQ3_S probably better
GGUF	i1-Q3_K_L	19.2	IQ3_M probably better
GGUF	i1-IQ4_XS	19.6
GGUF	i1-Q4_0	20.7	fast, low quality
GGUF	i1-Q4_K_S	20.8	optimal size/speed/quality
GGUF	i1-Q4_K_M	21.9	fast, recommended
GGUF	i1-Q4_1	22.9
GGUF	i1-Q5_K_S	25.1
GGUF	i1-Q5_K_M	25.7
GGUF	i1-Q6_K	29.8	practically like static Q6_K

Thanks

I thank my company, nethype GmbH, for letting me use its servers and providing upgrades to my workstation to enable this work in my free time. Additional thanks to @nicoboss for giving me access to his private supercomputer, enabling me to provide many more imatrix quants, at much higher quality, than I would otherwise be able to.
