Phi-4-mini-instruct GGUF
GGUF versions of Microsoft Phi-4-mini-instruct prepared
for efficient local inference.
This repository contains an F16 GGUF version and a Q4_K_M
quantized version.

Recommended Version
Phi-4-mini-instruct-Q4_K_M.gguf is recommended for most
consumer hardware and local inference setups.
It provides a substantially smaller memory footprint than F16
while retaining the advantages of the GGUF format.
Original Model
The original model is Microsoft's official Phi-4-mini-instruct.

Please refer to Microsoft's original model repository for
technical details, intended use, limitations, and licensing.
Quantization
The Q4_K_M file was generated from the F16 GGUF model using
llama.cpp quantization tools.
Quantization format:
Q4_K_M
llama.cpp
Basic usage:
llama-cli -m Phi-4-mini-instruct-Q4_K_M.gguf
GPU offloading:
llama-cli -m Phi-4-mini-instruct-Q4_K_M.gguf -ngl 99
Local server:
llama-server -m Phi-4-mini-instruct-Q4_K_M.gguf -ngl 99
Compatible Software
- llama.cpp
- llama-cpp-python
- LM Studio
- Jan
- Other GGUF-compatible runtimes
Model Variants
F16
Higher precision with substantially larger memory requirements.
Q4_K_M
Smaller model size and lower memory requirements, making it
more suitable for local deployment on consumer hardware.
