NVIDIA-Nemotron-3.5-Lightning-30B-A3B NVFP4 noMTP GGUF

This is a GGUF conversion of nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3.5-Lightning-30B-A3B-NVFP4 using llama.cpp's convert_hf_to_gguf.py using --outtype auto, and without MTP layers.

Thanks to no MTP layers included, you can run this on 32 GB VRAM with maximum context, at q8_0 KV cache quantization.

Verified working correctly with latest llama.cpp on 2x RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB and the following command (add other things you need):

llama-server -b 1024 -ub 256 \
  -ctk q8_0 -ctv q8_0 \
  --kv-offload -ngl 999 --load-mode none -fa on \
  --ctx-size 1048576 --parallel 1

No expert-layer offloading to RAM required. Solid performance. Here's an example run, where I fed it the PDF of my book Lo and Behold, X! — Denizens of the Ivory Fortress
