[@joaobarreira5221]

in the Stable Cascade course do you explain how to finetune the model?

[@shabadooshabadoo4918]

i literally just upgraded from my 1080ti to the rtx 4060 ti 16gb like 20 mins before seeing this video.

[@Lowai14]

Hi keiven can I ask you about RTX 4070 laptop visrion ( 8GB) I am intending to get Lenovo legion I9 14th gen , is this suitable setup for stable diffusion R3 & cascade? Thanks for your advise

[@dogwood178]

What about 2060 12gb? For 150 usd

[@baheth3elmy16]

I am using Cascade as A1111 Forge extension with my Nvidia RTX3050 8GB VRAM. It works, slow but works.

[@audyo123]

How long to complete a typical image?

[@4rrxw794]

@@audyo123 You can complete 512x512px image within 5-8 seconds on 1060 3GB VRAM (no tensor cores) with LCM mode or a 'turbo' model. 2060 SUPER can generate 1280x720px image in one second and this is with a ControlNet applied. But at the end of the day you realize it's actually 4k that's needed and this currently needs 20-24GB VRAM at least. Or a lot of time and workarounds. For example 4k image takes roughly a DAY (22-24 hours) on 1060 3GB.

I have a radeon 5700 and I was thinking of buying a new video card. The video card I have in mind is an RX 7900 XTX. Do you think it's worth it to play with Ai?

[@JahonCross]

Will my rx 6700xt be enough for this?

[@MURSIXX]

is it possible to run SD on dual RTX4080 (for example) configuration?

[@Pixovert]

Probably not, You can do this with some 30 series cards and older professional cards.

[@Bicyclesidewalk]

the 3060 12GB is a great card for SDXL and Cascade - running ComfyUI in Linux box - I have not had any issues as long as you don't ask it to do something impossible~

[@GOODWINweddingmovie]

Can you make your voice some little bit softly?

[@ShadowangelZero]

Is buying a used 3090 a good idea?

[@Pixovert]

There are pros and cons covered here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iV64o5ibqayGo80 Get an RTX 4090 at HALF PRICE Using this One Weird Trick (?)

[@themanager4983]

I was told the old (sub £500) 4060's are trash (memory bandwidth?) and that you're better off (when starting out like me) with a 3060 12gb and waiting until you can afford/justify a 24gb? Even, perhaps, waiting for the next gen because the latest models are decidedly meh when measured on a price to performance ratio? Thanks for the content, greatly appreciated. Don't care personally, but some may find the vocal fry a tad grating.

[@Pixovert]

The reduced memory bandwidth and increased cache with the RTX 4060 Ti and other lower end 40 models actually pays rich dividends in power consumption, reduced temperatures, improved acoustics, and most likely improved durability and a bunch of other factors that don't necessarily appear in the typical benchmarks. Be careful of faulty "gamerbro" advice on the RTX cards - there is quite a lot of very poor decisions that are being made based on that advice.

[@4rrxw794]

The only factor that is actually a trash is the ridiculous pricing.

[@monolithsoft_guy]

@@Pixovert Oh wow, you''re the first person I see recommending the 4060 Ti. So it's actually good for AI art? I thought about getting a 4070 Ti Super with 16GB VRAM, would that be a good idea? thx

[@Andytlp]

@@monolithsoft_guy Theres only two things you need to consider for SD generations, vram and ram. So for example 4060ti 16gb version would technically beat 4070 12gb one if your goal is some ridiculous resolutions or larger image batch sizes. Yes it would churn the images slower but more at once, higher quality if you do get past 12gb buffer.

[@monolithsoft_guy]

@@Andytlp thx. So a 4070 Ti Super with 16GB VRAM would also be a good choice for AI art, right? How much regular RAM would you recommend? I thought to go with 32, but I was contemplating about 64GB. thx
