# Anima-Base-FP8

![Anima_Upscale_00014_](https://cdn-uploads.huggingface.co/production/uploads/6a1af8de8e92da1d819b0197/WmrRmb6DEIJra2PVFo6JO.png)

This repository provides the **FP8 quantized version** of the [Anima-Base](https://huggingface.co/circlestone-labs/Anima) model. 

It is optimized to significantly reduce VRAM usage while maintaining high-quality generation, making it much easier to run on consumer-grade GPUs with limited VRAM.

## Quantization Tool

This model was quantized using the following open-source tool:
* **Quantizer**: [comfy-dit-quantizer](https://github.com/bedovyy/comfy-dit-quantizer)

## Quantized Models

There are two models - FP8 and FP8-balanced

- FP8 (2.4GB) : (***recommend***) maximize generation speed while preserving quality as much as possible.
- FP8-balanced (2.7GB) : (***Personal Preference***) retain the prefix and suffix blocks intact, while exclusively modifying the Self-Attention and MLP layers. As a result, its performance is remarkably close to the original BF16 model.
