+## Embed/output weights
+Some of these quants (Q3_K_XL, Q4_K_L etc) are the standard quantization method with the embeddings and output weights quantized to Q8_0 instead of what they would normally default to.
+## Downloading using huggingface-cli
+<details>
+  <summary>Click to view download instructions</summary>
+First, make sure you have hugginface-cli installed:
+```
+pip install -U "huggingface_hub[cli]"
+```
+Then, you can target the specific file you want:
+```
+huggingface-cli download bartowski/Zyphra_ZR1-1.5B-GGUF --include "Zyphra_ZR1-1.5B-Q4_K_M.gguf" --local-dir ./
+```
+If the model is bigger than 50GB, it will have been split into multiple files. In order to download them all to a local folder, run:
+```
+huggingface-cli download bartowski/Zyphra_ZR1-1.5B-GGUF --include "Zyphra_ZR1-1.5B-Q8_0/*" --local-dir ./
+```
+You can either specify a new local-dir (Zyphra_ZR1-1.5B-Q8_0) or download them all in place (./)
+</details>
+## ARM/AVX information
+Previously, you would download Q4_0_4_4/4_8/8_8, and these would have their weights interleaved in memory in order to improve performance on ARM and AVX machines by loading up more data in one pass.
+Now, however, there is something called "online repacking" for weights. details in [this PR](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/pull/9921). If you use Q4_0 and your hardware would benefit from repacking weights, it will do it automatically on the fly.
+As of llama.cpp build [b4282](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/releases/tag/b4282) you will not be able to run the Q4_0_X_X files and will instead need to use Q4_0.
+Additionally, if you want to get slightly better quality for , you can use IQ4_NL thanks to [this PR](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/pull/10541) which will also repack the weights for ARM, though only the 4_4 for now. The loading time may be slower but it will result in an overall speed incrase.

+## Which file should I choose?

+A great write up with charts showing various performances is provided by Artefact2 [here](https://gist.github.com/Artefact2/b5f810600771265fc1e39442288e8ec9)
+The first thing to figure out is how big a model you can run. To do this, you'll need to figure out how much RAM and/or VRAM you have.
+If you want your model running as FAST as possible, you'll want to fit the whole thing on your GPU's VRAM. Aim for a quant with a file size 1-2GB smaller than your GPU's total VRAM.
+If you want the absolute maximum quality, add both your system RAM and your GPU's VRAM together, then similarly grab a quant with a file size 1-2GB Smaller than that total.
+Next, you'll need to decide if you want to use an 'I-quant' or a 'K-quant'.
+If you don't want to think too much, grab one of the K-quants. These are in format 'QX_K_X', like Q5_K_M.
+If you want to get more into the weeds, you can check out this extremely useful feature chart:
+[llama.cpp feature matrix](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/wiki/Feature-matrix)
+But basically, if you're aiming for below Q4, and you're running cuBLAS (Nvidia) or rocBLAS (AMD), you should look towards the I-quants. These are in format IQX_X, like IQ3_M. These are newer and offer better performance for their size.
+These I-quants can also be used on CPU, but will be slower than their K-quant equivalent, so speed vs performance is a tradeoff you'll have to decide.
