    oryginal repo: https://huggingface.co/duyntnet/Chroma-8-steps-GGUF

    Only 8 steps

    CFG: 1-2

    Sampler: Euler/Beta (standard)

    Sampler: Euler/bong_tangent (RES4LYF custom node)

    For RES4LYF, keep the CFG value low, e.g., 1.2, otherwise you will lose detail (e.g., smooth skin).

    RES4LYF generates significantly better results than euler/beta.

    Upscaler: I use Upscayl/Topaz

    Test: GTX 1650 (yes, work)

    realistic style: euler/bong_tangent cfg=1-1.3

    analog style: euler/bong_tangent cfg=2

    Did you post a model that was released almost a year ago, or is this an updated merge?

    a year ago, I just discovered it

    @Umbrium  Cool, welcome to one of the best models out there. :D
    I would definitely suggest checking out the Chroma checkpoints on here. There are some much better merges/trained models than the basic Chroma 1.

    @blastermaster123 Hello, which checkpoint do you recommend? Thanks! Still using good ol chroma

    Please can you release a full fp8 version as this looks really interesting to try out. I think Chroma flash rank 256 and 128... Requires a minimum of 16 steps which is okay but 8 is faster

    benshapiro679May 15, 2026

    flash rank 128/256 is designed for 8 steps with heun
