## Which Precision Should I Use?

<div style="text-align: center; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; width: 800px; max-width: 70%;">
  <img src="./images/FP_compare_1.png" alt="FP_compare_1" width="800" height="800">
</div>

<div style="text-align: center; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; width: 800px; max-width: 70%;">
  <img src="./images/FP_compare_2.png" alt="FP_compare_2" width="800" height="800">
</div>

The order of numerical precision and VRAM usage is **FP32 > FP16 >  BF16 > FP8**.
(Note: **FP16** and **BF16** use the same amount of VRAM.)

Since many **LoRAs** are released in BF16 format, please select the **BF16** format if you prioritize compatibility and training stability.

## VAE

For the Z-Image_clear_anime model, we recommend using the custom VAE: [**Z-Image_natural_vae**](https://huggingface.co/easygoing0114/Z-Image_clear_vae/tree/main).
