Wan 2.2 I2V A14B on 12 GB of VRAM
Not at full quality. The 16-bit and 8-bit files are too big for 12 GB; the largest that fits is Q3_K_M (7.2 GB). The image-to-video Wan 2.2, and the most downloaded Wan 2.2 GGUF. Same two-model setup as the text-to-video version.
Q3_K_M (7.2 GB) fits with only 0.5 GB to spare (about 11.5 GB of 12 GB). Quality: noticeable loss of detail. For better quality, Q4_K_M (9.7 GB) also runs, with about 2.0 GB spilling into system RAM - a little slower, still practical.
Also try the FP8 file (14.3 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 →
Using Kijai's WanVideoWrapper instead of the native nodes? Its WanVideo BlockSwap node keeps part of the model in system RAM. To run the FP8 file (14.3 GB) on 12 GB, start with blocks_to_swap ≈ 20 (of 40). Each block is about 0.4 GB; raise the number if you still run out of memory, lower it for speed. estimate WanVideoWrapper →

“Needed” adds 3.5 GB of working memory for Wan 2.2 I2V and a 0.8 GB reserve. Sizes 2026-10-01. Wan 2.2 A14B uses two files of this size (high-noise and low-noise); only one sits in VRAM at a time, both must fit in system RAM.
