| # CLIPLoaderMultiGPU | |
| The `CLIPLoaderMultiGPU` node is used to load CLIP text encoder models with device selection capability, enabling users to specify which GPU or device should be used for model execution. | |
| This node automatically detects models located in the `ComfyUI/models/clip` folder, and it will also read models from additional paths configured in the `extra_model_paths.yaml` file. Sometimes, you may need to **refresh the ComfyUI interface** to allow it to read the model files from the corresponding folder. | |
| ## Inputs | |
| | Parameter | Data Type | Description | | |
| | --- | --- | --- | | |
| | `clip_name` | `STRING` | The name of the CLIP model to load. | | |
| | `type` | `STRING` | The type of CLIP model (e.g., 'stable_diffusion', 'stable_diffusion_xl'). | | |
| | `device` | `STRING` | Target device for text encoder compute operations (e.g., 'cuda:0', 'cuda:1', 'cpu'). Selected from available devices on your system. | | |
| ## Outputs | |
| | Output Name | Data Type | Description | | |
