Wan Animate 2 (14B) on 10 GB of VRAM
Not entirely. Even Q2_K is 1.8 GB over 10 GB, so ComfyUI keeps part of it in system RAM. The July 2026 successor to Wan 2.2 Animate, adding text-driven camera and viewpoint control. The distilled variant runs in about 10 steps.
Nothing fits entirely, but Q2_K (6.5 GB) overflows by only about 1.8 GB. ComfyUI keeps that part in system RAM automatically: slower than a full fit, but usable.
Also try the INT8 file (16.7 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 →
