+
+***For a convenient overview and download list, visit our [model page for this model](https://hf.tst.eu/model#IQuest-Coder-V1-40B-Base-i1-GGUF).***
+
+static quants are available at https://huggingface.co/mradermacher/IQuest-Coder-V1-40B-Base-GGUF
+## Usage
+
+If you are unsure how to use GGUF files, refer to one of [TheBloke's
+READMEs](https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/KafkaLM-70B-German-V0.1-GGUF) 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](https://huggingface.co/mradermacher/IQuest-Coder-V1-40B-Base-i1-GGUF/resolve/main/IQuest-Coder-V1-40B-Base.imatrix.gguf) | imatrix | 0.1 | imatrix file (for creating your own quants) |

+Here is a handy graph by ikawrakow comparing some lower-quality quant
+types (lower is better):

+## FAQ / Model Request

+See https://huggingface.co/mradermacher/model_requests for some answers to
+questions you might have and/or if you want some other model quantized.
+
+## Thanks
+
+I thank my company, [nethype GmbH](https://www.nethype.de/), for letting
+me use its servers and providing upgrades to my workstation to enable
+this work in my free time. Additional thanks to [@nicoboss](https://huggingface.co/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.
