flux is heavily trained on high quality images, so even if you want, its hard to get low quality images such as amateur selfie. I'd rather wait longer than mass produce lower quality images. I usually lower the resolution till i work on my prompt and other settings and once i get what i want, i increase the resolution and then generate more. Using OG Flux dev on just 8gb vram card, takes 2 mins for 1024*1024 23 steps but images are absolutely worth it. Controlnet is a problem though.
So i tried it and it took slightly less than 50% of time compared to OG flux dev, meaning 2x faster while generating similar image, but on my pc i face issues sometimes where generating takes more time than 6x compared to flux dev and 12x more than nf4, it happens every 3-4 images, so sometimes it works, sometimes it falls on its head. Very inconsistent, it will definitely be slower if i generate 100 images compared to regular flux dev. I know it has to do something with vram being full, but flux dev, a 24gb model works consistently on 8gb vram, nothing seems to compare to it.
Am I the only one getting missing node type error when trying to load CheckpointLoaderNF4? This is the 2nd guide I follow and it's literally the same thing that I am doing... and it doesn't work for whatever reason.
you have install the custom node "ComfyUI_bitsandbytes_NF4", and its very wip, you have to set comfyui manger to dev channel and sometimes reduce the security in config file from "normal" to "weak" or "normal-"
@@mikrodizels flux-dev take long to load - 1,500 seconds, but generate the image is only 120 seconds/iterations. Since flux-dev does most jobs in 6-10 steps it is about 15~20 minutes per image generation. I tend to use 1024X768 in either portrait/landscape. I load on an old HDD and I believe that is why loading the model is so long (well-relatively). I haven't use flux-snell recently, will check another time.

Im running a version of comfyui-zluda because my GPU is amd MSI armor radeon RX 580 with 8g vram. But I need to use flux.1. Please teach me how to. Any video tutorial for comfyui-zluda flux.1 ? Thanks. 🙏🏻

@@ImShubhamY nf4 was really slow on my 8gb card
Great review! Really started generating quickly! Thanks to the author!
Hey, I could be wrong, but I think that Flux GGUF is even faster?

I’ve heard about a new technology called GGUF. Is it true? How does it compare to NF4?
better
if your running flux on 6gig with an NF4 model, you may as well use XL at that point.
I been using turbo Dreamshaper and Atrium myself
my 2060 6GB takes 30 minutes to create a photo :v
Original flux-dev and flux-snell works with GTX 1060 6GB VRAM already. Slow, but it does the job...
Yeah, I can't get away from the original, nothing else works right.
Which veraion suitable for me,rtx3050 vram 4gb
I have the same GPU as you. How many seconds it takes for you to generate one 1024x1024 flux-dev and flux-snell picture?

Flux pro is wild!

@@NewsFixTV No, the story ended with me breaking comfi and reinstalling it
I think that Linux and Python installed is necesary. You can verify that.

You didn't say how much VRAM the schnell model was using
12GB, you might be able run it with only 8GB of VRAM but it will take longer to generate
8:30 when I paste the link, it says it doesn't recognize it and cant download
make sure you have git installed then paste this: git clone github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI_bitsandbytes_NF4.git

Can I use a lora node to generate consistent character images?
No
NF4 is deprecated in Comfyui
do you know how I can add a lora loader into this?
which is the fastest model in the case of a 12 GB RAM video card?
Flux schnell
Flux pro obviously has better lighting compare to other versions.
How are you using FLUX Pro on a local machine? Set up an addict please lol.
is flux made from germany because the flux "schnell" (fast)?
Yes, Germany is also where the black forest is.

No tworking with 5700xt. Model is not even loading in to a memory
load with cpu
I can use young on flux pro
You show memory, not vram
VRAM is more limited
Does it work on AMD?
you might be able to get it working on AMD GPU's but its not that simple. You might want to stick with online image generators
age xx works always
1:02 Flux schnell looks better and more realistic
sometimes it does look better then the other versions
Seems not to work on Mac at all
use DiffusionBb and save yourself all that comfyUI A1111 nightmare

stay wit sd. flux is sfw
Not if you apply a nsfw lora to it.

What's the best ver of SDXL and model?, what is the best for Auto1111.. I do not like Comfyui.
FLUXTASTIC, FLUX C4PACITOR, and scg-anatomy already exist to fill that gap, with more LoRAs coming out all the time.
