Quantization precision directly affects memory usage and image quality: 4-bit is small in size and suitable for devices with limited memory, 8-bit has higher precision, and FP16 is close to original precision but has the highest hardware requirements.

UnverifiedAt 4-bit precision and above, quantization has limited impact on output quality for most application scenarios.80% similarUnverified4-bit quantization is the balance point between performance and accuracy, while 3-bit can further reduce memory usage.79% similarVerifiedThe GGUF format supports multiple precision levels such as 4-bit and 8-bit, and can compress the memory footprint of a 7-billion-parameter model from approximately 14 GB (FP16) to approximately 4 GB (Q4_K_M quantization), with inference accuracy loss typically within 1–3%.75% similarUnverifiedThe memory and computing power available on edge devices are often measured in MB and milliwatts, differing from data center GPU clusters by several orders of magnitude.75% similar
