Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-A3B-TurboQuant-GGUF-Q4_K_M
GGUF Q4_K_M weight-quantized variant of nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-A3B-BF16 with TurboQuant KV cache compression for efficient inference with llama.cpp, Ollama, and LM Studio. Features a hybrid Mamba-2 + Transformer MoE architecture with 30.7B total parameters (3.2B active per token) and up to 1M context length.
Overview
This model combines two compression techniques:
- GGUF Q4_K_M weight quantization -- reduces model size from ~60 GB to ~14 GB
- TurboQuant KV cache compression -- block-diagonal rotations (Clifford algebra) for 3-bit KV cache, 5.3x faster prefill
Quickstart
llama.cpp
llama-cli -m Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-A3B-TurboQuant-GGUF-Q4_K_M.gguf \
--cache-type-k q4_0 --cache-type-v q4_0 \
-p "Explain quantum computing"
Ollama
ollama run majentik/Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-A3B-TurboQuant-GGUF-Q4_K_M
LM Studio
Download the GGUF file and load in LM Studio. Enable TurboQuant KV cache in advanced settings.
