# Nucleus-Image-FP8-Native

This is a native FP8 (float8_e4m3fn) quantization of the 17B Nucleus-Image model. 

## ⚠️ VRAM Warning
This model is **EXTREMELY HEAVY**. Even in FP8, the weights alone take up ~13-14GB of VRAM.
- **16GB VRAM (RTX 4060 Ti / 4070 Ti Super / 4080):** Recommended to use with `sequential_cpu_offload` for stability. Pure GPU inference might OOM at 1024x1024.
- **24GB VRAM (RTX 3090 / 4090):** Best experience. Can run Pure GPU without offloading.
- **12GB VRAM or less:** **NOT RECOMMENDED** unless using heavy CPU offloading (will be slow).
