Exllama v2 Quantizations of Hermes-2-Pro-Llama-3-8B

Using turboderp's ExLlamaV2 v0.0.20 for quantization.

The "main" branch only contains the measurement.json, download one of the other branches for the model (see below)

Each branch contains an individual bits per weight, with the main one containing only the meaurement.json for further conversions.
