Built from Qwen's original weights with our own importance matrix. The
calibration corpora
behind our builds are public.
Qwen3.8-Flash-Next is the first open-weight release of the architecture behind Qwen4.
These GGUFs are self-quantized from Qwen's original weights with our own importance matrix, published alongside the quants.
The quants are still uploading and need a llama.cpp build with Qwen3.8-Flash-Next support; Atomic Chat runs it as support ships.
Qwen3.8-Flash-Next architecture (Qwen).
Highlights
125B total with 6B active
sparse MoE (512 experts, 10 routed + 1 shared), plus a 51B n-gram embedding and a 4B MTP layer. An experimental preview of the architecture behind Qwen4.
Hybrid attention with QSA
: Gated DeltaNet paired with Qwen Sparse Attention, which operates at the micro-block level rather than per token to cut long-context latency for agentic workloads.
Gated Residual
: a data-dependent read gate plus a per-branch scalar write gate over widened residual streams, for finer expressiveness at low inference overhead.
N-gram Embedding
: 20M bigram/trigram embeddings indexed at layer 2, a compute-light axis for parameter scaling that offloads well on memory-constrained accelerators.
262,144-token context
, extensible up to 1,000,000 tokens with RoPE scaling.
Natively multimodal
(causal language model with a vision encoder, image-text-to-text). These GGUF quants cover the text path.
These GGUFs are
self-quantized from the original weights
, not a repack. The importance matrix keeps low-bit quants closer to the full-precision model.
Always pass
--jinja
so the
Qwen3.8-Flash-Next chat template
is applied. Without it the model can emit malformed turns.

GGUF quants (imatrix), text path. The importance matrix we built is published here too.
Scores are Qwen's published results for the base
Qwen/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next
. Quantization preserves the large majority of this;
Q4_K_M
and up sit within a point or two of full precision.
Choosing a quant
Quant
Size
Notes
IQ2_M
—
Smallest usable. Aggressive low-bit for memory-constrained boxes.
IQ3_M
—
Beats Q3 at similar size thanks to imatrix. Best low-RAM pick.
Q4_K_M
—
Recommended default. Best balance of size, speed and quality.
UD-Q4_K_XL
—
Dynamic. Embeddings and output kept at Q8_0 for higher quality at a Q4 footprint.
Q6_K
—
Near lossless.
Q8_0
—
Effectively lossless, reference quality.

Get started
Qwen3.8-Flash-Next is a brand-new Qwen4-preview architecture (Gated DeltaNet, Qwen Sparse Attention, n-gram embedding). The quants in this repo are still uploading, and running them needs a
llama.cpp
build that has landed Qwen3.8-Flash-Next support. Until then,
Atomic Chat
is the easiest way to run it as support ships.
