Qwen Image 2.1 GGUF
Qwen Image 2.1 is a diffusion transformer for text-to-image generation and image editing. It uses the Qwen3-VL 8B text encoder and supports image references through ComfyUI. It needs to be loaded with the GGUF Loader nodes.
- Loader nodes: GitHub / ComfyUI Registry
- Further documentation: ComfyUI-GGUF-Reboot Maintainer's docs
Available Quantizations
| Quant | File |
|---|---|
| Q4_0 | qwen_image_2.1_Q4.gguf |
| Q8 | qwen_image_2.1_Q8.gguf |
| Q8_CR | qwen_image_2.1_Q8_CR.gguf |
| Q4_CR | Work in progress |
The standard Q4_0 and Q8 files use GGML quantization. Q8_CR uses the native INT8 ConvRot path.
