gemma-4-31B-it-OnlyText-GGUF

GGUF quants of OnlyTextLLMs/gemma-4-31B-it-OnlyText — the text-only derivative of google/gemma-4-31B-it. The file is the text backbone alone: no draft head is embedded, so there is no in-file speculative decoding — plain decoding is what the numbers below measure.

Quant files

File	Size
`gemma-4-31B-it-OnlyText-Q4_K_M.gguf`	18.7 GB
`gemma-4-31B-it-OnlyText-Q6_K.gguf`	25.2 GB
`gemma-4-31B-it-OnlyText-Q8_0.gguf`	32.6 GB

Benchmarks

Measured 2026-09-24 on 2× AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700 (gfx1201, 34 GB each) with llama.cpp 9d286e1b315c (HIP/ROCm build, ROCm 7.14, -c 32768 -fa on). Baseline = llama-bench PP512/1024/2048 + TG128/256; chat decode = llama-cli single-turn, 256 generated tokens, median conditions, -np 1.

Quant	Device	Prefill t/s (PP512)	Gen t/s chat	Gen t/s llama-bench TG128
Q4_K_M	single R9700	940	24.0	24.3
Q6_K	single R9700	577	19.9	21.0
Q8_0	dual R9700 (layer-split)	900	—	16.6

The two decode columns are different measurements (chat runs use the chat template and a ~90-token prompt; TG128 is a bare 128-token generation) — do not compare them against each other.

No published baselines are cited for this size — the numbers above are ours.

Usage

Requires a llama.cpp build that knows the gemma4 architecture.

# llama-server (OpenAI-compatible)
llama-server -m gemma-4-31B-it-OnlyText-Q4_K_M.gguf -ngl 99 -c 32768 -fa on

# llama-cli single-turn chat
llama-cli -m gemma-4-31B-it-OnlyText-Q4_K_M.gguf -ngl 99 -c 32768 -fa on \
    -st -p "Your prompt"

Notes:

The chat template supports Gemma's thinking channel but defaults enable_thinking to false, so plain chat answers directly. Pass "chat_template_kwargs": {"enable_thinking": true} (server API) to let it reason first.
Dual-GPU: unset *_VISIBLE_DEVICES env pins; llama.cpp auto layer-splits (--split-mode layer is the default).

Details

Base: google/gemma-4-31B-it (apache-2.0): 30.70B params, 60 layers (50 sliding-attention + 10 full-attention), hidden 5376, vocab 262137, Gemma4ForCausalLM, gemma4 GGUF architecture.
Tokenizer: 17 text-only special tokens at ids 0–106 (EOS 1 = <eos>, turn end 106 = <turn|>); image/audio/video tokens removed.
Conversion: convert_hf_to_gguf.py (llama.cpp 9d286e1b315c) then llama-quantize with the file's named type; no draft head is embedded (the family ships none).
Weights are untouched derivatives — no additional training.

Attribution

This model is a derivative of google/gemma-4-31B-it by the Google team, released under the apache-2.0 license. All credit for the underlying weights and capabilities belongs to the original authors; this repository only removes modalities and quantizes, it does not add new training.
