Quants

| Quant | Size | VRAM est. | Notes |

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

| IQ2_M | 2.50 GB | ~3 GB | 2-bit, iMatrix — smallest usable |

| IQ3_M | 3.28 GB | ~4 GB | 3-bit, iMatrix — great quality/size tradeoff |

| IQ4_XS | 3.91 GB | ~4 GB | 4-bit extra-small, iMatrix |

| Q4_K_M | 4.37 GB | ~5 GB | 4-bit, iMatrix-calibrated (recommended) |

| Q5_K_M | 5.13 GB | ~6 GB | 5-bit, iMatrix-calibrated |

| Q6_K | 5.94 GB | ~7 GB | 6-bit, iMatrix-calibrated, near-lossless |

| Q8_0 | 7.70 GB | ~9 GB | 8-bit, essentially lossless |

What is iMatrix?

Standard quantization treats all weights equally. iMatrix runs 128 calibration chunks through

the full-precision model to find which weights matter most, then allocates more precision where

it counts. At Q2/Q3/Q4 this means noticeably better coherence and instruction-following —

same file size, better output.

Calibration: 2M tokens of WikiText-103.
