Base model: z-lab/Qwen3-8B-DFlash-b16

Qwen3 8B Dflash b16, self-quantized to GGUF by Atomic Chat. Built straight from Z Lab's original weights with a per-tensor importance matrix, so this is not a repack of somebody else's files. Runs fully offline.

Highlights

1.0B parameters: the weights this repo quantizes.
Context length: 40,960 tokens (40K), as published by Z Lab.
5 layers: Dense decoder.
Full imatrix ladder: every quant is calibrated with an importance matrix.

[!NOTE] These GGUFs are self-quantized from the original weights, not a repack. The importance matrix keeps low-bit quants closer to the full-precision model.

[!IMPORTANT] Always pass --jinja so the Qwen3 8B Dflash b16 chat template is applied. Without it the model can emit malformed turns.

Model Overview

Property	Value
Base model	`z-lab/Qwen3-8B-DFlash-b16`
Parameters	1.0B
Layers	5
Context length	40,960 tokens (40K)
Vocabulary	151,936
Modalities	Text
Architecture	Dense decoder, 32 attention heads over 8 KV heads, `DFlashDraftModel`
This repo	GGUF quants (imatrix). Quants: `Q8_0`

Choosing a quant

Quant	Size	Notes
`Q8_0`	1.1 GB	Effectively lossless, reference quality.

[!TIP] Pick the largest file that fits your (V)RAM with room for context. Q8_0 is the sweet spot for most setups; Q6_K or Q8_0 for maximum fidelity.
