About Mixtral-8x22B-v0.1

Mixtral-8x22B-v0.1 is a GGUF model based on v2ray/Mixtral-8x22B-v0.1 on Hugging Face. GGUF files are published by MaziyarPanahi/Mixtral-8x22B-v0.1-GGUF. It has about 140.6B parameters, the llama architecture, a maximum context length of 65,536 tokens (values written in the GGUF).

There are 15 quantizations, with file sizes from 29.6 GB (IQ1_S) to 281 GB (F16) (actual sizes on Hugging Face).

Running Q4_K_M (85.6 GB) with an 8,192-token context needs an estimated 88.1 GB of memory, and an estimated 93.7 GB at 32,768 tokens. For 8,192 tokens, a GPU with 96 GB or more of VRAM, or a Mac with 96 GB or more of unified memory, is a rough guide (macOS caps how much memory the GPU can use, so leave some headroom). The smallest, IQ1_S (29.6 GB), needs an estimated 32.1 GB at 8,192 tokens.

File size and estimated memory per quantization

  • Up to 8 GB
  • Up to 16 GB
  • Up to 24 GB
  • Up to 48 GB
  • Up to 128 GB

File sizes are the actual values on Hugging Face. Memory is estimated for each context length (KV cache f16). The formula is in How memory is calculated.

All memory figures are Estimated (KV cache f16). It should run on a setup with at least this much VRAM (or Mac unified memory). Click a value to see the devices and models that fit that amount (Find by GPU / Mac).

About the "quality guide" (how far a quantization drifts from the original)

For each quantization type, how far the output drifts from the original model, grouped into six levels from values llama.cpp measured on Llama-3-8B.

The value is mean KLD (the difference between the original and quantized model in next-token probabilities); smaller means closer to the original. Quantizations made with an imatrix (importance data) come out slightly smaller. Levels use the value without an imatrix (or with one, for types that only have that).

These values were not measured on this model. Larger models and MoE models tend to drift less with the same type. Distributor-specific mixed types (such as UD-Q4_K_XL) cannot be matched by type name alone, so they show "-".
