)📟 Gemma4-2B-Dense-Imatrix-Q4_K_M.gguf (2026 Edition)
"Local intelligence... to the max."
This is a custom-quantized version of Gemma4-2B, specifically optimized to obtain the highest possible local byte-intelligence ratio with 8GB+ RAM consumer laptops or computers.
🧠 Why this model is different
Unlike a standard quant, this model was processed using a custom Importance Matrix (imatrix). The training data for the imatrix was hand-curated to preserve:
- Incredible reasoning: Inclusion of custom coding examples built with frontier models provides high retention of very specific and sharp architectural reasoning skills
- Logical Flow: Inclusion of
llama.cppsource code, logic puzzles, and historical writing in the imatrix training to ensure the model stays coherent at low bitrates. - High Speed: Built using llama.cpp specifically for local-first AI and edge computing setups like apple silicon with minimum 24GB RAM
🛠 Quantization Details
- Base Model: Gemma4-2B
- Quantization: Q4_K_M
