Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-abliterated-v4-GGUF

GGUF quantizations of Bahushruth/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-abliterated-v4 for llama.cpp, Ollama, LM Studio, KoboldCPP, and other GGUF-compatible runtimes.

Uncensored model — refusal behavior removed via norm-preserving abliteration (0% refusal, full capability preservation). See the base model card for method details.

Quantizations

All standard quants are compatible with Ollama, LM Studio, KoboldCPP, and llama.cpp out of the box — no special flags needed.

| File | Size | RAM Required | Notes |

|------|------|-------------|-------|

| ...-BF16.gguf | 69 GB | 80+ GB | Full precision |

| ...-Q8_0.gguf | 37 GB | 48+ GB | Near-lossless |

| ...-Q6_K.gguf | 29 GB | 40+ GB | Very high quality |

| ...-Q5_K_M.gguf | 25 GB | 32+ GB | Recommended for 48GB systems |

| ...-Q4_K_M.gguf | 21 GB | 24+ GB | Good quality, fits 24GB |

| ...-IQ4_XS.gguf | 19 GB | 24+ GB | High quality 4-bit (imatrix) |

| ...-IQ4_NL.gguf | 20 GB | 24+ GB | Non-linear 4-bit (imatrix) |

| ...-Q3_K_M.gguf | 17 GB | 20+ GB | Good for 16GB VRAM GPUs |

| ...-IQ3_M.gguf | 15 GB | 20+ GB | High quality 3-bit (imatrix) |

| ...-IQ3_XXS.gguf | 14 GB | 16+ GB | Smallest usable 3-bit (imatrix) |

| ...-Q2_K.gguf | 13 GB | 16+ GB | 2-bit, quality tradeoffs |

| ...-IQ2_M.gguf | 12 GB | 16+ GB | Smallest, significant quality loss |

MTP (Multi-Token Prediction)

Qwen3.6-35B-A3B includes an MTP draft head (blk.40) for speculative decoding. All standard quants above exclude MTP for maximum compatibility.

A separate BF16-MTP file is available for advanced users running llama-server directly:

| File | Size | Notes |

|------|------|-------|

| ...-BF16-MTP.gguf | ~71 GB | BF16 with MTP draft head included |

To use MTP speculative decoding:

./llama-server -m Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-abliterated-v4-BF16-MTP.gguf \
  --jinja --spec-type draft-mtp --spec-draft-n-max 1 -ngl 99

> Runtime compatibility: MTP requires llama-server b9180+. Ollama does not support MTP yet. KoboldCPP 1.116.1+ and current LM Studio handle MTP fine, but many users are on older installs — the standard no-MTP quants are the safe default.

Quantization Types Explained

K-quants use a block-wise quantization scheme where weights are grouped into blocks and each block gets its own scale factor, preserving more precision than naive round-to-nearest quantization.

| Suffix | Meaning |

|--------|---------|

| Q8_0 | 8-bit uniform quantization (simplest, largest) |

| Q6_K | 6-bit k-quant. All tensor blocks use 6-bit. |

| Q5_K_M | 5-bit k-quant, medium variant. Important tensors bumped to Q6_K. |

| Q4_K_M | 4-bit k-quant, medium variant. Important tensors kept at Q5_K. |

| Q3_K_M | 3-bit k-quant, medium variant. Important tensors at Q4_K. |

| Q2_K | 2-bit k-quant. Aggressive compression with quality tradeoffs. |

| IQ4_XS | 4-bit importance-matrix quant. Uses imatrix calibration for better quality at same size. |

| IQ4_NL | 4-bit non-linear quant. Non-uniform quantization levels tuned to weight distributions. |

| IQ3_M | 3-bit importance-matrix quant. Medium quality. |

| IQ3_XXS | 3-bit importance-matrix quant. Extra small — minimum viable 3-bit. |

| IQ2_M | 2-bit importance-matrix quant. Extreme compression. |

The _M (medium) suffix means a mixed-precision strategy: less important layers get the headline bit-width while critical layers (attention output, embeddings) get one level higher. This gives noticeably better quality than pure _S (small) variants at only ~5-10% size increase.

IQ quants use importance-matrix calibration (computed from wikitext-2) to allocate more precision to weights that matter most for model output quality. They achieve better perplexity than K-quants at the same file size.

Quickstart — Ollama

# Recommended for Apple Silicon 48GB+ (M4 Pro, M4 Max, etc.)
ollama run hf.co/Bahushruth/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-abliterated-v4-GGUF:Q5_K_M

# For 24GB systems
ollama run hf.co/Bahushruth/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-abliterated-v4-GGUF:Q4_K_M

# For 10GB VRAM (RTX 3080)
ollama run hf.co/Bahushruth/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-abliterated-v4-GGUF:IQ3_XXS

Usage — llama.cpp

huggingface-cli download Bahushruth/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-abliterated-v4-GGUF \
  Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-abliterated-v4-Q5_K_M.gguf --local-dir .

# Basic usage
./llama-cli -m Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-abliterated-v4-Q5_K_M.gguf \
  -p "You are a helpful assistant." \
  --chat-template chatml -cnv

Important Notes

• This is a MoE model (256 experts, 8 active per token). Despite 35B total params, only ~3B are active — efficient for its capability level.
• All standard quants work with Ollama, LM Studio, KoboldCPP, and llama.cpp without any special flags.
• IQ quants (IQ4_XS, IQ3_M, etc.) use imatrix calibration for better quality-per-bit.
• Tested and confirmed working on M4 Pro 48GB with Q5_K_M, and RTX 3080 10GB with IQ3_XXS.

Conversion Details

• Converter: llama.cpp/convert_hf_to_gguf.py --no-mtp
• Quantizer: llama-quantize
• imatrix: wikitext-2, 100 chunks, 16 threads
• Infrastructure: Modal (CPU-only, 16 cores, 128GB RAM)
