Wan2.1-I2V-480P is an open-weight video model from city96. Wan2.1-I2V-14B-480P-gguf (GGUF) weighs 11.3 GB; the smallest configuration that runs it is RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB.

  • Wan2.1-I2V-480P is an image-to-video model created by city96 as a GGUF conversion of the Wan2.1-I2V-14B-480P architecture.
  • It supports English and Chinese and is distributed under the Apache-2.0 license.
  • The model is designed for use with the ComfyUI-GGUF custom node, with the uploaded file being an FP16 quantization derived from the FP32 base.

From the model card

What city96 says about Wan2.1-I2V-480P

Read the model card

This is a direct GGUF conversion of Wan-AI/Wan2.1-I2V-14B-480P

All quants are created from the FP32 base file, though I only uploaded FP16 due to it exceeding the 50GB max file limit and gguf-split loading not currently being supported in ComfyUI-GGUF.

The model files can be used with the ComfyUI-GGUF custom node.

Place model files in ComfyUI/models/unet - see the GitHub readme for further install instructions.

The other files required can be downloaded from this repository by Comfy-Org

Please refer to this chart for a basic overview of quantization types.

Running it yourself

Run it on a rented GPU

Rent a machine by the hour. ComfyUI is installed on it. Open ComfyUI through the tunnel, then Templates → Wan 2.1 Image to Video. Its model loader takes .safetensors files: replace it with Unet Loader (GGUF) and choose this model's file there.

# on your rented machine (the ssh line is on its page in the console)
# the GGUF loader nodes, once per machine
git clone https://github.com/city96/ComfyUI-GGUF /opt/ComfyUI/custom_nodes/ComfyUI-GGUF
pip install -r /opt/ComfyUI/custom_nodes/ComfyUI-GGUF/requirements.txt

# get REPO FILE FOLDER: one file into /workspace/models/FOLDER, where ComfyUI loads it from
get() { hf download "$1" "$2" --local-dir /workspace/hf-files && mkdir -p "/workspace/models/$3" && mv "/workspace/hf-files/$2" "/workspace/models/$3/$4"; }

# the model (10.6 GB)
get city96/Wan2.1-I2V-14B-480P-gguf wan2.1-i2v-14b-480p-Q4_K_M.gguf unet
