- Atomic Chat
-----------------------------------------------
- Update August 14th 2026 -
-----------------------------------------------
- New chat template! Yes, a new chat template that completely fixes previous issues for llama.cpp users
and retains higher performance than the originally made template for Ollama/Yollama users! - Fixed both F16 and F32 MMPROJ Multi-Modal Vision projectors. (Re-Uploaded with working projectors)
- Uploaded custom, high-quality, new "GH05T" edition Quant files for this model! (This is a brand new method I have been developing for some time, I sincerely hope you enjoy it!)
Custom GH05T Quants Added:
These offer significantly higher performance and quality of response over previously uploaded release files while remaining
similar or smaller in size!

Ministral 3 14B Instruct 2512 BF16
The largest model in the Ministral 3 family, Ministral 3 14B offers frontier capabilities and performance comparable to its larger Mistral Small 3.2 24B counterpart. A powerful and efficient language model with vision capabilities.
This model is the instruct post-trained version, fine-tuned for instruction tasks, making it ideal for chat and instruction based use cases.
The Ministral 3 family is designed for edge deployment, capable of running on a wide range of hardware. Ministral 3 14B can even be deployed locally, capable of fitting in 32GB of VRAM in BF16, and less than 24GB of RAM/VRAM when quantized.
We provide a no-loss FP8 version here, you can find other formats and quantizations in the Ministral 3 - Additional Checkpoints collection.
Key Features
Ministral 3 14B consists of two main architectural components:
- 13.5B Language Model
- 0.4B Vision Encoder
The Ministral 3 14B Instruct model offers the following capabilities:
- Vision: Enables the model to analyze images and provide insights based on visual content, in addition to text.
- Multilingual: Supports dozens of languages, including English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic.
- System Prompt: Maintains strong adherence and support for system prompts.
- Agentic: Offers best-in-class agentic capabilities with native function calling and JSON outputting.
- Edge-Optimized: Delivers best-in-class performance at a small scale, deployable anywhere.
- Apache 2.0 License: Open-source license allowing usage and modification for both commercial and non-commercial purposes.
- Large Context Window: Supports a 256k context window.
Use Cases
Private AI deployments where advanced capabilities meet practical hardware constraints:
- Private/custom chat and AI assistant deployments in constrained environments
- Advanced local agentic use cases
- Fine-tuning and specialization
- And more...
Bringing advanced AI capabilities to most environments.
