## 💾 Install Unsloth You can also see our docs for more detailed installation and updating instructions [here](https://unsloth.ai/docs/get-started/install-and-update). Unsloth supports Python 3.13 or lower. ### Pip Installation **Install with pip (recommended) for Linux devices:** ``` pip install unsloth ``` **To update Unsloth:** ``` pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall --no-cache-dir unsloth unsloth_zoo ``` See [here](#advanced-pip-installation) for advanced pip install instructions. ### Windows Installation 1. **Install NVIDIA Video Driver:** You should install the latest driver for your GPU. Download drivers here: [NVIDIA GPU Driver](https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx). 3. **Install Visual Studio C++:** You will need Visual Studio, with C++ installed. By default, C++ is not installed with [Visual Studio](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/community/), so make sure you select all of the C++ options. Also select options for Windows 10/11 SDK. For detailed instructions with options, see [here](https://unsloth.ai/docs/get-started/install-and-update/windows-installation#method-3-windows-directly). 5. **Install CUDA Toolkit:** Follow the instructions to install [CUDA Toolkit](https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-toolkit-archive). 6. **Install PyTorch:** You will need the correct version of PyTorch that is compatible with your CUDA drivers, so make sure to select them carefully. [Install PyTorch](https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/). 7. **Install Unsloth:** ```python pip install unsloth ``` #### Advanced/Troubleshooting For **advanced installation instructions** or if you see weird errors during installations: First try using an isolated environment via then `pip install unsloth` ```bash python -m venv unsloth source unsloth/bin/activate pip install unsloth ``` 1. Install `torch` and `triton`. Go to https://pytorch.org to install it. For example `pip install torch torchvision torchaudio triton` 2. Confirm if CUDA is installed correctly. Try `nvcc`. If that fails, you need to install `cudatoolkit` or CUDA drivers. 3. Install `xformers` manually via: ```bash pip install ninja pip install -v --no-build-isolation -U git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/xformers.git@main#egg=xformers ``` Check if `xformers` succeeded with `python -m xformers.info` Go to https://github.com/facebookresearch/xformers. Another option is to install `flash-attn` for Ampere GPUs and ignore `xformers` 5. For GRPO runs, you can try installing `vllm` and seeing if `pip install vllm` succeeds. 6. Double check that your versions of Python, CUDA, CUDNN, `torch`, `triton`, and `xformers` are compatible with one another. The [PyTorch Compatibility Matrix](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/RELEASE.md#release-compatibility-matrix) may be useful. 5. Finally, install `bitsandbytes` and check it with `python -m bitsandbytes` ### Conda Installation (Optional) `⚠️Only use Conda if you have it. If not, use Pip`. Select either `pytorch-cuda=11.8,12.1` for CUDA 11.8 or CUDA 12.1. We support `python=3.10,3.11,3.12`. ```bash conda create --name unsloth_env \ python=3.11 \ pytorch-cuda=12.1 \ pytorch cudatoolkit xformers -c pytorch -c nvidia -c xformers \ -y conda activate unsloth_env pip install unsloth ```

If you're looking to install Conda in a Linux environment, read here, or run the below 🔽

```bash mkdir -p ~/miniconda3 wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh -O ~/miniconda3/miniconda.sh bash ~/miniconda3/miniconda.sh -b -u -p ~/miniconda3 rm -rf ~/miniconda3/miniconda.sh ~/miniconda3/bin/conda init bash ~/miniconda3/bin/conda init zsh ```

### Advanced Pip Installation `⚠️Do **NOT** use this if you have Conda.` Pip is a bit more complex since there are dependency issues. The pip command is different for `torch 2.2,2.3,2.4,2.5,2.6,2.7,2.8,2.9` and CUDA versions. For other torch versions, we support `torch211`, `torch212`, `torch220`, `torch230`, `torch240`, `torch250`, `torch260`, `torch270`, `torch280`, `torch290` and for CUDA versions, we support `cu118` and `cu121` and `cu124`. For Ampere devices (A100, H100, RTX3090) and above, use `cu118-ampere` or `cu121-ampere` or `cu124-ampere`. For example, if you have `torch 2.4` and `CUDA 12.1`, use: ```bash pip install --upgrade pip pip install "unsloth[cu121-torch240] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git" ``` Another example, if you have `torch 2.9` and `CUDA 13.0`, use: ```bash pip install --upgrade pip pip install "unsloth[cu130-torch290] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git" ``` And other examples: ```bash pip install "unsloth[cu121-ampere-torch240] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git" pip install "unsloth[cu118-ampere-torch240] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git" pip install "unsloth[cu121-torch240] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git" pip install "unsloth[cu118-torch240] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git" pip install "unsloth[cu121-torch230] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git" pip install "unsloth[cu121-ampere-torch230] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git" pip install "unsloth[cu121-torch250] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git" pip install "unsloth[cu124-ampere-torch250] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git" ``` Or, run the below in a terminal to get the **optimal** pip installation command: ```bash wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/unslothai/unsloth/main/unsloth/_auto_install.py | python - ``` Or, run the below manually in a Python REPL: ```python try: import torch except: raise ImportError('Install torch via `pip install torch`') from packaging.version import Version as V import re v = V(re.match(r"[0-9\.]{3,}", torch.__version__).group(0)) cuda = str(torch.version.cuda) is_ampere = torch.cuda.get_device_capability()[0] >= 8 USE_ABI = torch._C._GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI if cuda not in ("11.8", "12.1", "12.4", "12.6", "12.8", "13.0"): raise RuntimeError(f"CUDA = {cuda} not supported!") if v <= V('2.1.0'): raise RuntimeError(f"Torch = {v} too old!") elif v <= V('2.1.1'): x = 'cu{}{}-torch211' elif v <= V('2.1.2'): x = 'cu{}{}-torch212' elif v < V('2.3.0'): x = 'cu{}{}-torch220' elif v < V('2.4.0'): x = 'cu{}{}-torch230' elif v < V('2.5.0'): x = 'cu{}{}-torch240' elif v < V('2.5.1'): x = 'cu{}{}-torch250' elif v <= V('2.5.1'): x = 'cu{}{}-torch251' elif v < V('2.7.0'): x = 'cu{}{}-torch260' elif v < V('2.7.9'): x = 'cu{}{}-torch270' elif v < V('2.8.0'): x = 'cu{}{}-torch271' elif v < V('2.8.9'): x = 'cu{}{}-torch280' elif v < V('2.9.1'): x = 'cu{}{}-torch290' elif v < V('2.9.2'): x = 'cu{}{}-torch291' else: raise RuntimeError(f"Torch = {v} too new!") if v > V('2.6.9') and cuda not in ("11.8", "12.6", "12.8", "13.0"): raise RuntimeError(f"CUDA = {cuda} not supported!") x = x.format(cuda.replace(".", ""), "-ampere" if False else "") # is_ampere is broken due to flash-attn print(f'pip install --upgrade pip && pip install --no-deps git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth-zoo.git && pip install "unsloth[{x}] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git" --no-build-isolation') ``` ### Docker Installation You can use our pre-built Docker container with all dependencies to use Unsloth instantly with no setup required.

We tested using the Alpaca Dataset, a batch size of 2, gradient accumulation steps of 4, rank = 32, and applied QLoRA on all linear layers (q, k, v, o, gate, up, down): | Model | VRAM | 🦥 Unsloth speed | 🦥 VRAM reduction | 🦥 Longer context | 😊 Hugging Face + FA2 | |----------------|-------|-----------------|----------------|----------------|--------------------| | Llama 3.3 (70B)| 80GB | 2x | >75% | 13x longer | 1x | | Llama 3.1 (8B) | 80GB | 2x | >70% | 12x longer | 1x | ### Context length benchmarks #### Llama 3.1 (8B) max. context length We tested Llama 3.1 (8B) Instruct and did 4bit QLoRA on all linear layers (Q, K, V, O, gate, up and down) with rank = 32 with a batch size of 1.
