# Zeth-Gemma3-4B - GGUF Quantized

Quantized GGUF versions of [Zeth-Gemma3-4B](https://huggingface.co/theprint/Zeth-Gemma3-4B) for use with llama.cpp and other GGUF-compatible inference engines.

## Original Model

- **Base model:** [google/gemma-3-4b-it](https://huggingface.co/google/gemma-3-4b-it)
- **Fine-tuned model:** [theprint/Zeth-Gemma3-4B](https://huggingface.co/theprint/Zeth-Gemma3-4B)
- **Quantized by:** theprint

## Available Quantizations

- `Zeth-Gemma3-4B-f16.gguf` (8688.3 MB) - 16-bit float (original precision, largest file)
- `Zeth-Gemma3-4B-q3_k_m.gguf` (2276.3 MB) - 3-bit quantization (medium quality)
- `Zeth-Gemma3-4B-q4_k_m.gguf` (2734.6 MB) - 4-bit quantization (medium, recommended for most use cases)
- `Zeth-Gemma3-4B-q5_k_m.gguf` (3138.7 MB) - 5-bit quantization (medium, good quality)
- `Zeth-Gemma3-4B-q6_k.gguf` (3568.1 MB) - 6-bit quantization (high quality)
- `Zeth-Gemma3-4B-q8_0.gguf` (4619.2 MB) - 8-bit quantization (very high quality)

## Usage

### With llama.cpp

```bash
# Download recommended quantization
wget https://huggingface.co/theprint/Zeth-Gemma3-4B-GGUF/resolve/main/Zeth-Gemma3-4B-q4_k_m.gguf

# Run inference
./llama.cpp/main -m Zeth-Gemma3-4B-q4_k_m.gguf \
  -p "Your prompt here" \
  -n 256 \
  --temp 0.7 \
  --top-p 0.9
```

### With other GGUF tools

These files are compatible with:
- [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp)
- [Ollama](https://ollama.ai/) (import as custom model)
- [KoboldCpp](https://github.com/LostRuins/koboldcpp)
- [text-generation-webui](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui)

## Quantization Info

**Recommended:** `q4_k_m` provides the best balance of size, speed, and quality for most use cases.

**For maximum quality:** Use `q8_0` or `f16`  
**For maximum speed/smallest size:** Use `q3_k_m` or `q4_k_s`
