Filename Quant Size Notes
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Q8_0.gguf Q8_0 34.37 GB Practically lossless. Closest to source with significant size cut.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Q6_K_L.gguf Q6_K 26.79 GB Q6_K with Q8_0 embed/output tensors. Near-lossless top tier.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Q6_K.gguf Q6_K 26.56 GB Near-lossless quality. Recommended for highest practical fidelity.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Q5_K_L.gguf Q5_K_M 23.32 GB Q5_K_M with Q8_0 embed/output. High quality with small overhead.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Q5_K_M.gguf Q5_K_M 23.03 GB High quality, balanced size. Recommended general-purpose.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Q5_K_S.gguf Q5_K_S 22.33 GB Slightly smaller than Q5_K_M with similar quality.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Q4_K_L.gguf Q4_K_M 20.06 GB Q4_K_M with Q8_0 embed/output. Sweet spot of quality and size.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Q4_K_M.gguf Q4_K_M 19.71 GB Best size/quality tradeoff. Recommended default.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Q4_K_S.gguf Q4_K_S 18.52 GB Compact with minor quality loss versus Q4_K_M.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-IQ4_NL.gguf IQ4_NL 18.42 GB Slightly larger than IQ4_XS. Online repacking for ARM CPU inference.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-IQ4_XS.gguf IQ4_XS 17.44 GB Most efficient sub-Q4. Smaller than Q4_K_S with comparable quality.

Calibration

Imatrix generated from reapmix (community calibration mix) — ~400K tokens — multilingual + code + math. This is the same class of public calibration data used by other community GGUF publishers; no claim of unique calibration is made for this release.

*_L and *_XL variants override the output tensor and/or token embedding to Q8_0 (versus the base type), at small extra disk for typically improved output stability at low bit-rates.

Download

Single file:

Whole repo:

hf download Krasnopjorovs/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Imatrix-GGUF --local-dir ./Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-gguf

Run

./llama-server -m Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Q4_K_M.gguf -c 32768 -ngl 99 --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8080

Picking a quant

  • Q8_0 / Q6_K_L — RAM headroom, want ceiling quality
  • Q5_K_M / Q4_K_L — workstation default, very small quality loss
  • Q4_K_M — best general size/quality tradeoff, the default choice
  • IQ4_XS — smallest with serious quality, for tight RAM
  • IQ3_M / Q3_K_M — when 8GB-class VRAM is the budget
  • IQ2_M and below — emergency only, quality degrades visibly
