-Precompiled wheels are included for CPU-only and NVIDIA GPUs (cuBLAS). For AMD, Metal, and some specific CPUs, you need to uninstall those wheels and compile llama-cpp-python yourself.
-
-To uninstall:
+1) Replace the last command above with
 
 ```
-pip uninstall -y llama-cpp-python llama-cpp-python-cuda
+pip install -r requirements_nocuda.txt
 ```
 
-To compile: https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python#installation-with-openblas--cublas--clblast--metal
+2) Manually install llama-cpp-python using the appropriate command for your hardware: [Installation from PyPI](https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python#installation-from-pypi).
+
+3) AMD: Manually install AutoGPTQ: [Installation](https://github.com/PanQiWei/AutoGPTQ#installation).
+
+4) AMD: Manually install ExLlama by simply cloning it into the `repositories` folder (it will be automatically compiled at runtime after that):
+
+```
+cd text-generation-webui
+mkdir repositories
+cd repositories
+git clone https://github.com/turboderp/exllama
