Published 16 Oct 2026. NVIDIA official 2-bit GGUF, stated file size 22.0 GB. llama.cpp 0.7.0-dev build 11669, commit 620d2225c, 4K context, chat-short, one run per config, runs dated 15 Oct 2026. Headline figures are 87.8, 107.3 and 154.7 tokens per second. The table prints 87.75 for the RTX 3090 and says the quant was not reported in that column. Not a localLLMrig measurement. Calculator estimates keep benchmarkSourceUrl null.
