Occamy-1.0 APEX-I-NanoPlus GGUF

The Next-Generation Frontier MoE · Extreme 12–13GB Footprint · Fast System RAM Streaming & Massive Context on 16GB VRAM

🚀 EXPLORE THE ESTABLISHED 35B MoE MINIPLUS & NANOPLUS LINEUP

These are complementary APEX-I releases, not alternate downloads of the same model. Each receives the same surgical tensor-by-tensor approach and a design suitable for full or partial system-RAM inference:

THE DEFINITIVE SPECIFICATION IN THE ~12–13 GB CEILING

This APEX-I-NanoPlus release marks the official debut of our specialized tensor-by-tensor architectural configuration for sparse Mixture-of-Experts quantization within an extreme ~12–13 GB envelope. Every tensor across its 40 layers and 256 micro-experts has been mathematically allocated to maximize reasoning precision, preserve routing behavior, and prevent avoidable CPU dequantization stalls during hybrid and system-RAM inference.

🏆 BUILD & VERIFIED REFERENCE COMPARISON

Quantization Specification File Size (Disk) Memory Footprint (RAM/VRAM) Average BPW WikiText-2 Perplexity ΔPPL vs. approx. BF16 Quality Tier Equivalent
Unquantized BF16 Base ~70.0 GB ~65.2 GiB 16.00 BPW ~6.18 (Reference) 0.000 Full precision baseline
APEX-I-MiniPlus V2.1 14.75 GB 13.74 GiB 3.40 BPW 6.2432 ± 0.1622 +0.0632 (+1.02%) Q5_K_M tier
APEX-I-NanoPlus (CURRENT) 12.55 GB 11.69 GiB ~2.93 BPW 6.1695 ± 0.15632 ~0.00 (within error bounds) Solid Q4_K_M / Q4_K_L Tier

Looking for higher precision? APEX-I-MiniPlus V2.1 offers the full 14.75 GB (3.40 BPW) release of this Occamy family, delivering full Q5_K_M tier fidelity with 120 shared experts in physical Q5_K.

Routing: all recipe-designated gate_inp and gate_shexp tensors remain in uncompressed F32, preserving zero routing drift.

Evaluation status: WikiText-2 perplexity successfully measured on final GGUF (6.1695 ± 0.15632).

ARC-Challenge (0-shot, 1,172 questions): 95.73%.

  • Q4_K_L Tier in Reasoning & Routing: 100% uncompressed F32 routers (gate_inp) and a Q6_K output head eliminate router drift, matching or exceeding standard Q4_K_L baselines on logic benchmarks.
  • Solid Q4_K_M Tier in Language Modeling: WikiText-2 perplexity preserves 4-bit distributional fidelity across standard generation in an ultra-lean footprint.

DO NOT CONFUSE APEX-I-NANOPLUS WITH GENERIC COMMUNITY SUB-3-BIT QUANTS!

Regardless of release version, NEVER confuse handcrafted APEX-I-NanoPlus builds with generic community sub-3-bit releases:

  • Generic Community IQ2_S / IQ2_XXS: Uniformly crushes all core MoE experts down to aggressive 2-bit codebooks without importance calibration, leaves the sensitive token output head unarmored at 3-bit, and compresses attention projections. In deep reasoning models, this triggers severe perplexity spikes, syntax errors, and broken code brackets.
  • Handcrafted APEX-I-NanoPlus: Applies a surgical tensor-by-tensor architecture that preserves 100% of expert routing matrices in uncompressed F32 (zero router drift), armors the token output head in high-precision Q6_K, safeguards attention gates in Q8_0, fortifies the critical MoE down-projection residual stream (ffn_down_exps) in IQ3_XXS (3.06 bpw), and restricts 2-bit compression strictly to redundant gating/up projections guided by the official imatrix.

SYSTEM RAM INFERENCE: FULL OR PARTIAL

This APEX-I-NanoPlus release is designed for full or partial system-RAM inference. Depending on the processor, memory bandwidth, and DDR4/DDR5 configuration, generation can range from 20 to 45 tok/s. With partial GPU offload, systems that cannot fit 128K or more context entirely in VRAM can place the remaining model and context load in system RAM, maintaining stable, responsive generation at longer context lengths.


Optimization History & Transparency Notice

We maintain our previous releases publicly as a transparent engineering record of continuous optimization. Below is the exact evolutionary roadmap of our architectures:

Specification Core Experts (2–37) Edge Experts (0–1, 38–39) Shared Expert (shexp) Full Attention (L3, 7, 11, ...) Attention Gates Output Head (output.weight) Routers (gate_inp) Size / Overhead Real-World Impact
Generic APEX Mini IQ2_S (2.50 bpw) Q3_K (only 5 layers) Q4_K / Q3_K Q3_K Compressed Q3_K_M Compressed Baseline (~12.5 GB) Severe syntax errors, broken code indentation, high perplexity in <think>.

NanoPlus (NEW) IQ3_XXS (down) + IQ2_S (gate) + IQ2_XXS (up) Q3_K (down) + IQ3_XXS (gate/up) Q4_K Q4_K (q/k/v) + Q6_K (attn_output) Q8_0 Q6_K F32 12.55 GB (11.69 GiB) Calibrated 12–13 GB tier. Leaves >3 GB free VRAM on 16GB cards for 32k context with zero AVX2 CPU stalls.

Deployment & System Architecture Guide

  • Full GPU VRAM Offload (16GB+ VRAM, -ngl 99): Effortless full offload with native 32K–64K context support on 16GB cards (RTX 4080 / RTX 4070 Ti Super), and native 256K context on 24GB workstations (RTX 3090 / 4090 / 5090).
  • System RAM Streaming Specialist (DDR4/DDR5 & Massive Context): Specially engineered to run either partially or entirely out of system RAM across large or full context windows. By utilizing linear SIMD-optimized Q4_K attention projections and preserving critical down-projections in IQ3_XXS, AVX2 CPU dequantization stalls are eliminated.
