LFM2.5-24B-A2B GGUF

GGUF quantizations of LiquidAI/LFM2.5-24B-A2B, covering 31 files (365.9 GB total).

Files

File	Quant	Size	Notes
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-BF16.gguf	`BF16`	44.67 GB	Full precision source. Every quant below is cut from this file.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q8_0.gguf	`Q8_0`	23.74 GB	Effectively lossless. Use when disk and RAM are not the constraint.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q6_K.gguf	`Q6_K`	18.34 GB	Near-lossless; the last stop before quality becomes measurable.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q5_K_M.gguf	`Q5_K_M`	15.86 GB	Very good quality, noticeably smaller than Q6_K.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q5_K_S.gguf	`Q5_K_S`	15.41 GB	Slightly smaller than Q5_K_M for a slight quality cost.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q5_1.gguf	`Q5_1`	16.78 GB	Legacy. Prefer Q5_K_M.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q5_0.gguf	`Q5_0`	15.41 GB	Legacy. Prefer Q5_K_M.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q4_K_M.gguf	`Q4_K_M`	13.53 GB	The usual default. Best quality-per-byte for most people.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q4_K_S.gguf	`Q4_K_S`	12.72 GB	A little smaller than Q4_K_M, a little worse.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-IQ4_NL.gguf	`IQ4_NL`	12.65 GB	Non-linear 4-bit; good on hardware without fast K-quant kernels.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-IQ4_XS.gguf	`IQ4_XS`	11.96 GB	Best sub-4.5bpw option; usually beats Q4_K_S at a smaller size.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q4_1.gguf	`Q4_1`	14.03 GB	Legacy. Prefer Q4_K_M.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q4_0.gguf	`Q4_0`	12.65 GB	Legacy round-to-nearest. Prefer Q4_K_M unless a runtime needs this.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-MXFP4_MOE.gguf	`MXFP4_MOE`	12.39 GB	MoE-only 4-bit microscaling format for the expert tensors.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q3_K_L.gguf	`Q3_K_L`	11.57 GB	Small, with real quality loss. Usable when RAM is tight.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q3_K_M.gguf	`Q3_K_M`	10.68 GB	Smaller again; noticeable degradation.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-IQ3_M.gguf	`IQ3_M`	9.80 GB	Strong at ~3.7bpw, clearly better than Q3_K_M.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-IQ3_S.gguf	`IQ3_S`	9.71 GB	Slightly smaller than IQ3_M.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q3_K_S.gguf	`Q3_K_S`	9.71 GB	Aggressive. Prefer IQ3_M at a similar size.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-IQ3_XS.gguf	`IQ3_XS`	9.18 GB	Aggressive but coherent.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-IQ3_XXS.gguf	`IQ3_XXS`	8.65 GB	Very aggressive; the last coherent step down.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q2_K.gguf	`Q2_K`	8.20 GB	Very small, heavily degraded. For experimentation.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-IQ2_M.gguf	`IQ2_M`	2.02 GB	The smallest size most people find usable.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q2_K_S.gguf	`Q2_K_S`	7.61 GB	Smaller than Q2_K, at a further quality cost.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-IQ2_S.gguf	`IQ2_S`	6.67 GB	Below the usual usability line.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-IQ2_XS.gguf	`IQ2_XS`	6.60 GB	Experimental.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-IQ2_XXS.gguf	`IQ2_XXS`	5.93 GB	Experimental.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q2_0.gguf	`Q2_0`	6.44 GB	Extreme, group-64. Included for completeness.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-IQ1_M.gguf	`IQ1_M`	5.10 GB	Extreme. Expect substantial degradation.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-IQ1_S.gguf	`IQ1_S`	4.59 GB	Extreme. Expect substantial degradation.
LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q1_0.gguf	`Q1_0`	3.33 GB	Extreme. Included for completeness.

Which one should I download?

Pick the largest file that leaves a couple of gigabytes of headroom on the device you will run it on — the model has to fit in RAM (or VRAM, if you are offloading) alongside the KV cache and the OS.

Plenty of memory: Q6_K or Q8_0.
The usual choice: Q4_K_M.
Tight on memory: IQ4_XS, then IQ3_M, then IQ2_M.
The IQ* files generally beat a Q* file of similar size, at the cost of slightly slower inference on some hardware.

Usage

llama-cli -hf NANI-Nithin/LFM2.5-24B-A2B-GGUF:Q4_K_M -p "Hello"

Or download one file and point at it directly:

huggingface-cli download NANI-Nithin/LFM2.5-24B-A2B-GGUF LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q4_K_M.gguf --local-dir .
llama-cli -m LFM2.5-24B-A2B-Q4_K_M.gguf -p "Hello"
