Qwen-Image-2.1-PE-T2I-Heretic-NVFP4

by Darrellbest darrellbest/Qwen-Image-2.1-PE-T2I-Heretic-NVFP4

Qwen-Image-2.1-PE-T2I-Heretic-NVFP4 is an open-weight model for text to image from Darrellbest, released under other. It has 9.4B parameters and a 262,144-token context. At 16-bit it needs about 22.6 GB of GPU memory, which fits on 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour, at the lowest prices in the SAVRN Index. It draws 13 downloads a month.

NVFP4 (4-bit floating point, W4A4) build of darrellbest/Qwen-Image-2.1-PE-T2I-Heretic, the refusal-ablated text-to-image prompt rewriter for Qwen-Image-2.1. For vLLM on NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs, which run NVFP4 natively. 11 GB instead of 18 GB.

Model Card

NVFP4 (4-bit floating point, W4A4) build of darrellbest/Qwen-Image-2.1-PE-T2I-Heretic, the refusal-ablated text-to-image prompt rewriter for Qwen-Image-2.1. For vLLM on NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs, which run NVFP4 natively. 11 GB instead of 18 GB. systemprompt.txt is included and required, exactly as for the original. The linear-attention layers carry a recurrent state and the vision tower encodes the input image; both were left in bf16, as other quantizations of this model family do. That is why the file is 11 GB rather than ~6 GB. Made with llm-compressor 0.13.0 (QuantizationModifier, scheme="NVFP4"), calibrated on 64 samples in the model's real input format: its own system prompt and a short…
