For those of us with a 16GB GPU, how do they compare with ExllamaV4 at 4-bit (4.0bpw)?
It looks like that fits in 12.5GB of VRAM since embedding are left in DRAM, Unsloth Studio and other llama.cpp derivatives have to load these weights in VRAM for tied embedding models like Qwen3.8.
ExllamaV3 4.0bpw fits in 12.5G of VRAM and beats IQ4_XS according to the measurements here: [turboderp/Qwen3.8-27B-exl3](https://huggingface.co/turboderp/Qwen3.8-27B-exl3)
But those were compared against UD2.0 I guess. Also plans to support these (SOTA) quants in Unsloth Studio?
It's only because of your comment that I re-read the their post.
This dark pattern is reminiscent of those online test sites in the 2000's where you spend 10 minutes filling out some quiz, then get prompted for an email address to see the results.

MoonshotAI had this fake chat box dark pattern.
So I signed up with Mistral instead.
Qwen3.7-Max is a proprietary, closed weight model.
First, it's not really "1 bit", actually much closer to 2-bit. IQ1_M is actually 1.75bit and IQ2_XXS is 2.06bit This is from the ./llama-quantize --help with most of the quant types and their size in bpw: https://pastebin.com/bCUqGfeE
And to elaborate on the "dynamic" aspect inconito said in the other comment, if you click on one of the .gguf files in huggingface:

There are a lot of Q5_K, Q6_K, etc tensors. Only the routed experts (ffn_gate_exps.weight, ffn_up_exps.weight, ffn_down_exps.weight) are heavily quantized, and it looks like the down_proj is actually iq3_xxs for this model.
Also make sure the shape of the paragraphs is completely uniform.
From the blog:

Unfortunately, an LLM can't actually reflect or advise how you could have improve the prompt. Otherwise we could give them a sample output and say "Generate the prompt that would produce this output.
I tried to get notepad and mspaint from an older Windows 10 build -> Windows 11 on a surface pro, but gave up after a few hours...
