About

weighted/imatrix quants of https://huggingface.co/TeeZee/DarkForest-20B-v3.0

static quants are available at https://huggingface.co/mradermacher/DarkForest-20B-v3.0-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 i1-IQ1_S 4.5 for the desperate
GGUF i1-IQ1_M 4.9 mostly desperate
GGUF i1-IQ2_XXS 5.5
GGUF i1-IQ2_XS 6.0
GGUF i1-IQ2_S 6.5
GGUF i1-IQ2_M 7.0
GGUF i1-Q2_K 7.5 IQ3_XXS probably better
GGUF i1-IQ3_XXS 7.7 lower quality
GGUF i1-IQ3_XS 8.3
GGUF i1-IQ3_S 8.8 beats Q3_K*
GGUF i1-Q3_K_S 8.8 IQ3_XS probably better
GGUF i1-IQ3_M 9.3
GGUF i1-Q3_K_M 9.8 IQ3_S probably better
GGUF i1-Q3_K_L 10.7 IQ3_M probably better
GGUF i1-IQ4_XS 10.8
GGUF i1-Q4_0 11.4 fast, low quality
GGUF i1-Q4_K_S 11.5 optimal size/speed/quality
GGUF i1-Q4_K_M 12.1 fast, recommended
GGUF i1-Q5_K_S 13.9
GGUF i1-Q5_K_M 14.3
GGUF i1-Q6_K 16.5 practically like static Q6_K

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.
