Questions About Qwen-Image

How much GPU memory does Qwen-Image need?

About 49 GB at 16-bit and 12.3 GB at 4-bit: the weights (20.4B parameters) plus a working margin. A long context needs more.

What is the cheapest GPU to run Qwen-Image on?

At 16-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour; at 4-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour, at the lowest on-demand prices the SAVRN Index lists.

Can I use Qwen-Image commercially?

Yes. Qwen-Image is released under Apache License 2.0. The Apache License 2.0 is a permissive open-source license. It permits commercial use, modification and redistribution. It requires keeping the license and copyright notices and any NOTICE file, stating significant changes, and it includes an express patent grant from contributors.

Z-Image-Turbo

Tongyi-MAI

Welcome to the official repository for the Z-Image(造相)project! Z-Image is a powerful and highly efficient image generation model family with 6B parameters. Currently there are four variants: - Z-Image-Turbo – A distilled version of Z-Image that matches or exceeds leading competitors with only 8 NFEs (Number of Function Evaluations). It offers sub-second inference latency on enterprise-grade H800 GPUs and fits comfortably within 16G VRAM consumer devices. It excels in photorealistic image generation, bilingual text rendering (English & Chinese), and robust instruction adherence. - Z-Image – The foundation model behind Z-Image-Turbo. Z-Image focuses on high-quality generation, rich…
