# Gemma-7B-it GGUF

This is a quantized version of the [google/gemma-7b-it](https://huggingface.co/google/gemma-7b-it) model using [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp).

This model card corresponds to the 7B base version of the Gemma model. You can also visit the model card of the [2B base model](https://huggingface.co/google/gemma-2b), [2B instruct model](https://huggingface.co/google/gemma-2b-it), and [7B base model](https://huggingface.co/google/gemma-7b).

## ⚡ Quants

* `q2_k`: Uses Q4_K for the attention.vw and feed_forward.w2 tensors, Q2_K for the other tensors.
* `q3_k_l`: Uses Q5_K for the attention.wv, attention.wo, and feed_forward.w2 tensors, else Q3_K
* `q3_k_m`: Uses Q4_K for the attention.wv, attention.wo, and feed_forward.w2 tensors, else Q3_K
* `q3_k_s`: Uses Q3_K for all tensors
* `q4_0`: Original quant method, 4-bit.
* `q4_1`: Higher accuracy than q4_0 but not as high as q5_0. However has quicker inference than q5 models.
* `q4_k_m`: Uses Q6_K for half of the attention.wv and feed_forward.w2 tensors, else Q4_K
* `q4_k_s`: Uses Q4_K for all tensors
* `q5_0`: Higher accuracy, higher resource usage and slower inference.
* `q5_1`: Even higher accuracy, resource usage and slower inference.
* `q5_k_m`: Uses Q6_K for half of the attention.wv and feed_forward.w2 tensors, else Q5_K
* `q5_k_s`:  Uses Q5_K for all tensors
* `q6_k`: Uses Q8_K for all tensors
* `q8_0`: Almost indistinguishable from float16. High resource use and slow. Not recommended for most users.

## 💻 Usage

This model can be used with the latest version of llama.cpp and LM Studio >0.2.16.
