weighted/imatrix quants of https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct

<!-- provided-files -->
static quants are available at https://huggingface.co/mradermacher/Meta-Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct-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/Meta-Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct-i1-GGUF/resolve/main/Meta-Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct.i1-Q2_K.gguf) | i1-Q2_K | 26.5 | IQ3_XXS probably better |

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 hardware for calculating the imatrix for these quants.
