# OpenCrystal-8B-L3

This is a far more optimized version of [Darkknight535/OpenCrystal-12B-L3](https://huggingface.co/Darkknight535/OpenCrystal-12B-L3) which uses the original 8B models (instead of the upscaled 12B models).

This is a merge of pre-trained language models created using [mergekit](https://github.com/cg123/mergekit).

## Merge Details
### Merge Method

This model was merged using the [TIES](https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.01708) merge method using [unsloth/llama-3-8b-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/unsloth/llama-3-8b-Instruct) as a base.

### Models Merged

The following models were included in the merge:
* [nothingiisreal/L3-8B-Celeste-V1.2](https://huggingface.co/nothingiisreal/L3-8B-Celeste-V1.2)
* [Sao10K/L3-8B-Niitama-v1](https://huggingface.co/Sao10K/L3-8B-Niitama-v1)
* [unsloth/llama-3-8b-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/unsloth/llama-3-8b-Instruct)

### Configuration

The following YAML configuration was used to produce this model:
