Any chance of a Q4?

I really would like to test this, but my pc have only 10Gb VRAM + 64Gb RAM. Using with mmap woudnt be as good as everything loaded.

There is currently no plan for a uniform Q4 version.

mmap may help make the model technically runnable, but on a typical PC with a discrete GPU, system RAM and VRAM are separate memory pools. It does not make system RAM equivalent to GPU-accessible memory, and PCIe transfers can become a significant bottleneck.

If your goal is mainly to test model quality with 10 GB VRAM + 64 GB RAM, CPU offloading with llama.cpp or Ollama would probably be the more practical option.
