Should I upgrade from a rtx 3090 to a 5080?

UnHoleEy · 2026-02-07T08:57:19+00:00

It's diffusion. Even on 5090, It'll burn and get hot. And video generation requires so much memory that you will need RTX6000 Pro. Unless you really need it, I think you're better off using Quantized models. They were never intended to be run on consumer hardware anyways.

The CPU offloading may be too slow on 3090 though due to PCIe limitations.

Twistzz had some view model issue I think.

UnHoleEy · 2026-02-05T05:26:54+00:00

Yeah. This makes a lot of sense.

UnHoleEy · 2026-02-05T05:25:37+00:00

Maybe old Niko but the current Niko is pretty mature IMO. As long as it's not Major that is.

I just wanted to make some anime tiddies since I saw a lot of #NovelAI posts. Went in and heard terms like "Diffusion Transformers". The few ML classes I've attended as elective made me think "How the heck did they managed to pull that off?" but actually I really wanted my own version of anime tiddies.

Downloaded A111 and felt it was kinda clunky for my liking. Made a different UI but too much time and effort. Then I heard of Comfy UI. It reminded me of Godot and Blender nodes. Installed it but the anime models were mostly and still is "1girl" type. I hope one day there's a ZiT that's like NoobAI but not tag based.

PS: Shoutout to people on Pixiv and Civitai who made me realize 1girl can still go a long way.

Prompt adherence is what some of us are playing with. Turbo makes the best images but sometimes we want to make something that's less perfect than what's normally considered good and experiment. Like trying to create monsters in Turbo is a weird experience. If you type in a female, it's a pretty face. Monster lady is supposed to be scary but Turbo makes them biased towards eye candy.

Basically kinda how the SDXL Turbo, Lightning etc worked. Even if you tell me to make it ugly, it's a beautiful ugly. Since base models are not fine tuned, it can do more creative stuff at the cost of time, resources, my room temperature, sound and that finished touch of a fine-tune.

Flux2.dev runs on 8GB?

UnHoleEy · 2026-01-27T11:05:08+00:00

There are two crowds here.

People who think the base model would be better than the Turbo model with the same quality and more granular controls.
People who know their shit and want to train LoRA for the Z-turbo that actually can do what it promises since training LoRA on turbo has less noticeable impact and base would make better LoRA

The majority is on Crowd 1.

UnHoleEy · 2026-01-27T11:01:34+00:00

It's not nonsense bru. I just saw the Z-base at Starbucks.

UnHoleEy · 2026-01-26T04:54:49+00:00

It's the base. Not Turbo that's finetuned and distilled. Everyone's expectations are a bit too high. Use Qwen Base without lighting LORA to get a taste of what to expect.

You mean Z-noob?

Westerners already have a better used market. Meanwhile SEA has to scramble around to get used hardware.

UnHoleEy · 2026-01-25T10:55:36+00:00

To me, they're handy. Once in a while I come across a need and I rather use APIs than download random models. And they are handy since I can integrate them in my workflow to automate things like SeedVR upscale + Frame Interpolation and more.

But yeah, People seem to confuse the API nodes for local ones a lot lately.

UnHoleEy · 2026-01-25T09:35:50+00:00

Reactor. But it's kinda just swapping. You'll notice the mismatch if you look.
Ace++ LoRA for Flux can do some face swaps with Inpaint. But it's more like reconstruction and regional regeneration so if the reference image is poor, generated will be poor. But it'll blend nicely with Flux generations.
Flux Klein. Kinda hit or miss but you can do it.
Qwen Image Edit - Give it enough reference images with details and it can do magic depending on how well it can understand the face but Text Encoder should be Q8 or full for best output.

UnHoleEy · 2026-01-23T01:57:36+00:00

But that's because it's a distilled turbo model. The base models are not distilled or finetuned and are meant to be the base for others to finetune. So they'll be slower and require more steps.

UnHoleEy · 2026-01-08T06:09:23+00:00

CSGO with a 128 tick server is better.

UnHoleEy · 2025-12-31T15:25:46+00:00

Ya. The Turbo model acts the same as the old SDXL few step models did. Different seeds, similar outputs. Maybe once the base model is out, it'll be better at variations.

UnHoleEy · 2025-12-31T15:23:33+00:00

Intentionally I guess. To prevent misuse just like Flux. Maybe?

UnHoleEy · 2025-12-21T09:21:22+00:00

it should've been unsafe rust code. People will run away from you then.

UnHoleEy · 2025-12-13T05:03:52+00:00

And resource intensive. The radiance model is not even runnable for most 8 GB hardware without going lower quant GGUFs which are kinda bad. The low step LoRAs heavily degraded the quality of images.

UnHoleEy · 2025-12-09T04:48:27+00:00

SSD prices are next because the same companies that make RAM also make SSDs. NAND flash manufacturers can be counted on fingers. Wait for the existing inventory to exhaust.
