2026-09-25Apple Silicon Macs: 12 memory sizes from 16 to 512 GB (M1 to M5 and the new M6), with the GPU share of memory measured on current macOS, which file types work on Apple GPUs (FP8 does not), GGUF text encoders for Macs, real reported speeds and a Mac guide page. The checker recognises Macs too.2026-09-25New tools: a VRAM calculator (resolution, frames, batch, LoRAs, ControlNets, system RAM), "what would an upgrade change" for any two GPUs plus 35 ready-made upgrade pages, and a LoRA training page with 49 figures from the trainers' own docs. Every answer page now lists exactly what to download — model, text encoder, VAE and extra files, with direct links, total size and the system RAM you need. Model pages show which file types are fast on NVIDIA, AMD and Intel. Wan pages estimate blocks_to_swap for Kijai's WanVideoWrapper. The checker can suggest your GPU from your browser and remember it (stored only in your browser). New models page with email alerts and a feed. Fixed: the red card-limit line on memory maps was drawn in the wrong place.2026-09-259 more models (SCAIL-2, Boogu-Image, ERNIE-Image, HiDream-O1-Image, Mage-Flow, Lumina Image 2.0, HiDream-I1 Full, the original HunyuanVideo 13B, LTX-Video 13B) — 49 in total. 69 reported real-world results with sources, including AMD, Intel Arc, laptops and Strix Halo.2026-09-25Fact-check pass: FP8 compute on AMD RX 9000 (RDNA 4) added; ComfyUI Dynamic VRAM (default on NVIDIA since March 2026) now explained on verdict pages; --lowvram advice updated; FP4 speed figure corrected to NVIDIA's actual numbers; LTX-2.5 text encoder corrected to Gemma 4 12B.2026-09-25New design. 14 more models (Krea 2, Qwen-Image 2.1, MiniMax H3, Ideogram 4, Z-Image, Wan 2.1 I2V/VACE, Wan 2.2 Animate/S2V, Wan Animate 2, FLUX.1 Fill, SD 1.5, Illustrious/Pony). 33 laptop GPUs and Strix Halo. GPU comparisons, "best GPU for" pages, memory maps on every verdict, site search. All 530 original file sizes re-checked against Hugging Face: zero mismatches.2026-09-24First version: 25 models, 53 desktop GPUs, 886 pages.
