Choose the quantization level that best fits your needs based on your system’s RAM and VRAM availability.

Step 3: Choosing the Right File

Determining the right file for your setup is crucial for optimal performance. Here are some tips to guide your decision:

  • Determine the total RAM and VRAM available on your system.
  • If you want fast performance, select a quant that is 1-2GB smaller than your GPU’s VRAM.
  • For the best possible quality, sum your system RAM and GPU VRAM, then choose a quant accordingly.
  • If you prefer simplicity, opt for the K-quants (e.g., Q5_K_M).
  • For more detailed performance, consider the I-quants (e.g., IQ4_XS), which provide better performance at the cost of speed for specific applications.

Troubleshooting Tips

If you encounter any issues while trying to download or utilize CodeGemma, consider the following troubleshooting techniques:

  • Verify that you are logged into your Hugging Face account and have acknowledged the usage license.
  • Check your system’s RAM and VRAM to ensure compatibility with the selected model size.
  • If the model fails to load, try switching between K-quants and I-quants based on your system’s specifications.
