Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about running MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.5 locally

What should I know before running MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.5?

This model delivers strong local performance when paired with modern GPUs. Use the hardware guidance below to choose the right quantization tier for your build.

How do I deploy this model locally?

Use runtimes like llama.cpp, text-generation-webui, or vLLM. Download the quantized weights from Hugging Face, ensure you have enough VRAM for your target quantization, and launch with GPU acceleration (CUDA/ROCm/Metal).

Which quantization should I choose?

Start with Q4 for wide GPU compatibility. Upgrade to Q8 if you have spare VRAM and want extra quality. FP16 delivers the highest fidelity but demands workstation or multi-GPU setups.

What is the difference between Q4, Q4_K_M, Q5_K_M, and Q8 quantization for MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.5?

Q4_K_M and Q5_K_M are GGUF quantization formats that balance quality and VRAM usage. Q4_K_M uses ~4GB VRAM with good quality retention. Q5_K_M uses slightly more VRAM but preserves more model accuracy. Q8 (~8GB) offers near-FP16 quality. Standard Q4 is the most memory-efficient option for MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.5.

Where can I download MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.5?

Official weights are available via Hugging Face. Quantized builds (Q4, Q8) can be loaded into runtimes like llama.cpp, text-generation-webui, or vLLM. Always verify the publisher before downloading.
