About
weighted/imatrix quants of https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-40b-instruct
static quants are available at https://huggingface.co/mradermacher/falcon-40b-instruct-GGUF
Usage
If you are unsure how to use GGUF files, refer to one of TheBloke's READMEs 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 | i1-IQ1_S | 9.8 | for the desperate |
| GGUF | i1-IQ1_M | 10.1 | mostly desperate |
| GGUF | i1-IQ2_XXS | 12.0 | |
| GGUF | i1-IQ2_XS | 13.2 | |
| GGUF | i1-IQ2_S | 14.0 | |
| GGUF | i1-IQ2_M | 15.1 | |
| GGUF | i1-Q2_K | 16.4 | IQ3_XXS probably better |
| GGUF | i1-IQ3_XXS | 17.0 | lower quality |
| GGUF | i1-IQ3_XS | 18.4 | |
| GGUF | i1-IQ3_S | 18.9 | beats Q3_K* |
| GGUF | i1-Q3_K_S | 18.9 | IQ3_XS probably better |
| GGUF | i1-IQ3_M | 19.8 | |
| GGUF | i1-Q3_K_M | 20.7 | IQ3_S probably better |
| GGUF | i1-Q3_K_L | 22.2 | IQ3_M probably better |
| GGUF | i1-IQ4_XS | 22.6 | |
| GGUF | i1-Q4_0 | 24.0 | fast, low quality |
| GGUF | i1-Q4_K_S | 24.4 | optimal size/speed/quality |
| GGUF | i1-Q4_K_M | 26.1 | fast, recommended |
| GGUF | i1-Q5_K_S | 29.6 | |
| GGUF | i1-Q5_K_M | 31.2 | |
| GGUF | i1-Q6_K | 35.1 | practically like static Q6_K |

Thanks
I thank my company, nethype GmbH, for letting me use its servers and providing upgrades to my workstation to enable this work in my free time.
