Question about the tier naming in Apex Quant
Hi,
I work on product distribution for the Xing series at China Telecom AI.
I've been looking at your three Apex Quant tiers and the per-VRAM deployment table β that table covers the practical cases better than what we publish ourselves.
One thing I wanted to ask about: the i-quality tier comes out at 19.2 GB while i-balanced is 22 GB, and the layer-band table shows balanced using higher precision in the middle layers. Is the naming intentional, or did the two tiers end up swapped somewhere along the way?
No agenda here. Just asking directly rather than guessing.
Best,

Hi, thanks for the detailed question. Just to clarify β I only did the GGUF conversion for this repo. The tier naming and the quantization scheme (which layers get which precision) were set by the original model author, not by me. I don't have visibility into why quality vs balanced ended up with those specific sizes/precisions. You might want to check with the original model repo or the author directly for the reasoning behind that naming.
