If you are unsure how to use GGUF files, refer to one of TheBloke's READMEs for more details, including on how to concatenate multi-part files.

(sorted by size, not necessarily quality. IQ-quants are often preferable over similar sized non-IQ quants)

Here is a handy graph by ikawrakow comparing some lower-quality quant types (lower is better):

See https://huggingface.co/mradermacher/model_requests for some answers to questions you might have and/or if you want some other model quantized.
