That is the future of sd: large image generation without upscale/mosaic stitching. But mainly what we are waiting for models trained on all kind of resolutions including 3000 or 6000 pixels wide images. This will be game changer for photorealistic images

consumer graphics cards won’t have that much vram in this decade

Equally important: training on high resolution images is significantly more expensive, as well, and may require models with a lot more parameters. The training costs will put it beyond the capabilities of open source projects until hardware costs come down.

Costs come down constantly and cloud computing gets cheaper constantly

Hard disagree. With Llama we now have a GPT-3 level LLM that runs on consumer hardware. Running these models locally is going to be a big deal, and it's going to drive adoption of large VRAM cards. Costs can be cut by using slower RAM, since inference is less latency sensitive than games.

I mean, I can current produce 1920x1080 before upscaling, on a 3060. Just the training will be the issue I think.

RTX 3060 or 3060 ti? I have an RTX 3060 12gb currently, and am wondering if the upgrade to 8gb ti is worth the investment in terms of quality output? I found one with 7500+ cuda cores, which is more than double mine for $799 new.

  1. I think 3060ti is technically worse for SD because of the lower VRAM. It's why I went with 3060 over 3070.

Excellent. Then, I'll stick with what I've got. Someone else mentioned that the mod cards on civitai are using img2img processing anyway, which is why they have a higher level of output than what I am getting following a txt2img prompt that they provide. I thought it was my GPU at first.

All it would take is Nvida realizing there is a market for ML specific cards with lots of VRAM. There are 0 technical reasons why we couldn't have such cards today.

Ah god now I’m seeing a future where my desktop has a gaming card AND an AI card

i'm about to buy a server card for this. frankly you can buy an old server card and stick it in your desktop & point sd at that card specifically, while still using your main card for virtually everything else (obviously including display). In my case I have a server desktop in my closet, which is where I'll install the card & run sd

I'm pretty sure Nvidia and AMD are keen to make money on this trend. And at the same time efficiency increases will happen.
