Can the RTX 4060 8 GB run LTX-2.3 (22B)?
Not entirely. Even Q4_K_M is 11.1 GB over 8 GB, so ComfyUI keeps part of it in system RAM.
The smallest sensible file, Q4_K_M (14.3 GB), needs about 19.1 GB - 11.1 GB more than RTX 4060 8 GB has. ComfyUI can still run it by streaming part of the model from system RAM. How much slower that is depends on your ComfyUI version, the file format and the PCIe link - see the note below.
01With more VRAM
With 32 GB you could run LTX-2.3 at 8-bit or better (Q8_0, 22.8 GB) with no offloading: for example on the RTX 5090 32 GB.

Alternatives: Gemma 3 12B FP4 mixed (9.4 GB); Gemma 3 12B BF16 (24.4 GB). FP4 files are listed only as alternatives unless the GPU is an RTX 50 (Blackwell). Only for some workflows: LTX-2.3 spatial upscaler x2 1.1 (1.0 GB, official two-stage template). Sizes from Hugging Face, 2026-10-01.
System RAM: 48 GB or more. These files take about 31.7 GB of RAM while loaded, 37.7 GB with Windows and ComfyUI. What happens with less. calculated
04The text encoder
At 9.4 GB even the smallest Gemma 3 12B file is too big for 8 GB, so it runs from system RAM. That slows down reading the prompt, not the picture. Sizes: 16-bit 24.4 GB, FP8 13.2 GB, FP4 mixed 9.4 GB. Why the encoder does not count against VRAM →

Nobody has sent measured numbers for this pair yet. If you run LTX-2.3 on a RTX 4060 8 GB, send your time per image and peak VRAM and it will appear here, credited.
06About the RTX 4060 8 GB
The RTX 4060 8 GB is an Ada Lovelace GPU with hardware FP8, so ComfyUI can compute Comfy-Org's FP8 files natively: small and fast. (Plain FP8 files use FP8 maths with the --fast fp8_matrix_mult option.)

07Questions
How much VRAM does LTX-2.3 need?
Around 13.1 GB with the smallest file (Q2_K) and 27.6 GB with an 8-bit file (Q8_0). The full 16-bit file needs about 46.8 GB.
Which LTX-2.3 file should I download for the RTX 4060 8 GB?
Q4_K_M (14.3 GB) from unsloth/LTX-2.3-GGUF. Load it with Unet Loader (GGUF) from the ComfyUI-GGUF node pack.
