As in actual physical heat. How are people coping with the heat that running a decent inference rig pumps out? I've got dual 5060 Ti GPUs and a relatively modest CPU (Intel 14 Core Ultra 5 245KF Deskt

TL;DR: k-quants need tensor rows divisible by 256. When they aren't, llama-quantize quietly swaps in a ~4.5 bpw type and the file keeps its low-bit name. I audited 443 quants across 25 repos; 64 are a
