If you're running Laguna S 2.1 and it feels "stupid" or isn't reasoning properly, are you using quantization worse than Q8?

I can fit the whole thing in RAM in Q8, and it seems to be outperforming qwen 3.5 122B-A10B Q8 for some things. I've been seeing reports for the last couple days of people saying it feels stupid, but it doesn't seem that way to me.
