Qwen-Image 2.1 GGUF (ComfyUI)

<div align="center">

</div>

Quantized GGUF weights of the state-of-the-art Qwen-Image 2.1 diffusion model for ComfyUI using ComfyUI-GGUF.

These models allow running Qwen-Image 2.1 on consumer GPUs with significantly reduced VRAM footprint while preserving maximum visual quality, text-rendering capabilities, and composition fidelity.

   • Place it in: ComfyUI/models/diffusion_models/ (or ComfyUI/models/unet/)

2. VAE:

   • Download qwen_image_2.1_vae_bf16.safetensors from Comfy-Org/Qwen-Image-2.1.
   • Place it in: ComfyUI/models/vae/

3. Text Encoder / CLIP:

   • Download qwen3vl_8b_fp8_scaled.safetensors or qwen3vl_8b_int8_convrot.safetensors (or qwen3vl_8b_bf16.safetensors) from Comfy-Org/Qwen-Image-2.1.
   • Place it in: ComfyUI/models/text_encoders/ (or ComfyUI/models/clip/)
   • Note: In ComfyUI's CLIPLoader, select loader type qwen_image.
