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	Q2_K	1.8
GGUF	Q3_K_S	2.0
GGUF	Q3_K_M	2.2	lower quality
GGUF	Q3_K_L	2.3
GGUF	IQ4_XS	2.4
GGUF	Q4_K_S	2.5	fast, recommended
GGUF	Q4_K_M	2.6	fast, recommended
GGUF	Q5_K_S	2.9
GGUF	Q5_K_M	3.0
GGUF	Q6_K	3.4	very good quality
GGUF	Q8_0	4.4	fast, best quality
GGUF	f16	8.2	16 bpw, overkill

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