Available quantizations

Lower-bit quantizations generally use less memory. The compatibility calculator uses these candidates and its transparent approximate memory assumptions; it does not make a performance guarantee.

Q4_K_M

A commonly available lower-memory GGUF variant; the listed memory input is an estimate, not the repository file size.

Bits per weight: 4.5
Source: ggml-org/gemma-3-27b-it-GGUF GGUF repository

Q8_0

A higher-memory GGUF variant where listed by the conversion repository; the listed memory input remains approximate.

Bits per weight: 8
Source: ggml-org/gemma-3-27b-it-GGUF GGUF repository

Compatibility notes

Weight estimates are approximate and include a runtime overhead. Real requirements vary with context length, runtime, drivers, and other system use. A model page cannot determine compatibility without your hardware profile; use the calculator for that assessment.
