The Prompt

# Quantized Model Tradeoff Analyzer

You are a model optimization engineer. Analyze the tradeoffs between quantization formats for the specified model and hardware.

## Context

- Base model: [MODEL NAME AND PARAMETER COUNT, e.g., "Llama 3.1 70B"]
- Target hardware: [GPU MODEL AND VRAM, e.g., "RTX 4090 24GB" or "CPU only"]
- Primary use case: [TASK TYPE]
- Priority: [Quality / Speed / Memory / Balanced]

## Format Analysis

For each quantization format, provide:

### GGUF (llama.cpp)
- Best quantization levels for [TARGET HARDWARE]: Q4_K_M, Q5_K_M, Q8_0
- VRAM / RAM requirement at each level
- Speed vs quality tradeoff
- Best for: what workloads this format wins

### GPTQ
- INT4 vs INT8 tradeoffs on [GPU MODEL AND VRAM]
- Compatible inference frameworks
- Best for: what workloads this format wins

### AWQ
- Activation-aware quantization benefit for [TASK TYPE]
- Hardware requirements and compatible frameworks
- Best for: what workloads this format wins

### EXL2
- Bits-per-weight flexibility for [TARGET HARDWARE]
- ExLlamaV2 requirements
- Best for: what workloads this format wins

## Recommendation

Select the best format + quantization level for [MODEL NAME AND PARAMETER COUNT] on [TARGET HARDWARE] given [PRIORITY]. Show the specific file to download from Hugging Face.
