LTX-Video 13B (0.9.8) on 10 GB of VRAM
Not at full quality. The 16-bit and 8-bit files are too big for 10 GB; the largest that fits is Q2_K (4.7 GB). The last of the pre-LTX-2 video models from Lightricks (July 2025). No audio, T5 text encoder, and much lighter than LTX-2.
Q2_K (4.7 GB) fits with only 1.0 GB to spare (about 9.0 GB of 10 GB). Quality: heavy loss; a last resort. For better quality, Q3_K_M (6.5 GB) also runs, with about 0.8 GB spilling into system RAM - a little slower, still practical.
Also try the FP8 file (15.7 GB) on NVIDIA GPUs. It does not fit entirely, but a current ComfyUI streams the overflow from RAM and native 8-bit files often beat a small GGUF that does fit. Dynamic VRAM →
