About

weighted/imatrix quants of https://huggingface.co/silx-ai/Quasar-2M-Base

For a convenient overview and download list, visit our model page for this model.

static quants are available at https://huggingface.co/mradermacher/Quasar-2M-Base-GGUF

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	0.2	imatrix file (for creating your own quants)
GGUF	i1-IQ1_S	5.5	for the desperate
GGUF	i1-IQ1_M	6.1	mostly desperate
GGUF	i1-IQ2_XXS	7.0
GGUF	i1-IQ2_XS	7.8
GGUF	i1-IQ2_S	7.9
GGUF	i1-IQ2_M	8.6
GGUF	i1-Q2K_S	8.9	very low quality
GGUF	i1-Q2K	9.6	IQ3XXS probably better
GGUF	i1-IQ3_XXS	10.0	lower quality
GGUF	i1-IQ3_XS	10.7
GGUF	i1-IQ3S	11.3	beats Q3K*
GGUF	i1-Q3KS	11.3	IQ3XS probably better
GGUF	i1-IQ3_M	11.4
GGUF	i1-Q3KM	12.4	IQ3S probably better
GGUF	i1-Q3KL	13.4	IQ3M probably better
GGUF	i1-IQ4_XS	13.8
GGUF	i1-Q4_0	14.7	fast, low quality
GGUF	i1-Q4K_S	14.7	optimal size/speed/quality
GGUF	i1-Q4K_M	15.6	fast, recommended
GGUF	i1-Q4_1	16.2
GGUF	i1-Q5K_S	17.8
GGUF	i1-Q5K_M	18.3
GGUF	i1-Q6K	21.1	practically like static Q6K

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

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.
