GGUF Model
Here are Quantized versions of Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct using GGUF
🤔 What Is GGUF
GGUF is designed for use with GGML and other executors. GGUF was developed by @ggerganov who is also the developer of llama.cpp, a popular C/C++ LLM inference framework. Models initially developed in frameworks like PyTorch can be converted to GGUF format for use with those engines.

💪 Benefits of using GGUF
By using a GGUF version of Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct, you will be able to run this LLM while having to use significantly less resources than you would using the non quantized version. This also allows you to run this 70B Model on a machine with less memory than a non quantized version.
⚙️️Installation
Here are 2 different methods you can use to run the quantized versions of Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct
1️⃣ Text-generation-webui
Text-generation-webui is a web UI for Large Language Models that you can run locally.
☑️ How to install Text-generation-webui
If you already have Text-generation-webui then skip this section
# | Download Text-generation-webui |
---|---|
1. | Clone the text-generation-webui repository from Github by copying the git clone snippet below: |
git clone https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui.git
# | Install Text-generation-webui |
---|---|
1. | Run the start_linux.sh , start_windows.bat , start_macos.sh , or start_wsl.bat script depending on your OS. |
2. | Select your GPU vendor when asked. |
3. | Once the installation script ends, browse to http://localhost:7860 . |
✅Using Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct-GGUF with Text-generation-webui
# | Using Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct-GGUF with Text-generation-webui |
---|---|
1. | Once you are running text-generation-webui in your browser, click on the 'Model' Tab at the top of your window. |
2. | In the Download Model section, you need to enter the model repo: hierholzer/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct-GGUF and below it, the specific filename to download, such as: Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct-Q4_K_M.gguf |
3. | Click Download and wait for the download to complete. NOTE: you can see the download progress back in your terminal window. |
4. | Once the download is finished, click the blue refresh icon within the Model tab that you are in. |
5. | Select your newly downloaded GGUF file in the Model drop-down. once selected, change the settings to best match your system. |
2️⃣ Ollama
Ollama runs as a local service. Although it technically works using a command-line interface, Ollama's best attribute is their REST API. Being able to utilize your locally ran LLMs through the use of this API can give you almost endless possibilities!
Feel free to reach out to me if you would like to know some examples that I use this API for
☑️ How to install Ollama
Go To the URL below, and then select which OS you are using
https://ollama.com/download
Using Windows, or Mac you will then download a file and run it. If you are using linux it will just provide a single command that you need to run in your terminal window. That's about it for installing Ollama
✅Using Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct-GGUF with Ollama
Ollama does have a Model Library where you can download models:
https://ollama.com/library
This Model Library offers many different LLM versions that you can use. However at the time of writing this, there is no version of Llama-3.3-Instruct offered in the Ollama library.
If you would like to use Llama-3.3-Instruct (70B), do the following:
# | Running the 70B quantized version of Llama 3.3-Instruct with Ollama |
---|---|
1. | Open up your terminal that you have Ollama Installed on. |
2. | Paste the following command: |
ollama run hf.co/hierholzer/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct-GGUF:Q4_K_M
Replace Q4_K_M with whatever version you would like to use from this repository.
# | Running the 70B quantized version of Llama 3.3-Instruct with Ollama - continued |
---|---|
3. | This will download & run the model. It will also be saved for future use. |
