FAQ / Model Request See https://huggingface.co/mradermacher/model_requests for some answers to questions you might have and/or if you want some other model quantized. ## Thanks I thank my company, [nethype GmbH](https://www.nethype.de/), for letting me use its servers and providing upgrades to my workstation to enable this work in my free time. Additional thanks to [@nicoboss](https://huggingface.co/nicoboss) for giving me access to his private supercomputer, enabling me to provide many more imatrix quants, at much higher quality, than I would otherwise be able to.
