# VDN-H3 `stage-dmd-step-250` — INT8 ConvRot (ComfyUI pre-quantized)

Pre-quantized **Comfy Kitchen INT8 ConvRot** version of the 8-step checkpoint
(`stage-dmd-step-250`) from [OpenVDN/vdn-minimax-h3](https://huggingface.co/OpenVDN/vdn-minimax-h3).
For use with [ComfyUI-VDN-H3](https://github.com/Saganaki22/ComfyUI-VDN-H3).

> **Requires ComfyUI-VDN-H3 v1.3.0+** ([release](https://github.com/Saganaki22/ComfyUI-VDN-H3/releases/tag/v1.3.0)).

Same weights, same adapters, A/B-verified visually identical output. What you
save:

| | original stage | this repo |
|---|---|---|
| linear branch | 4.28 GB bf16 | 2.20 GB int8 |
| stage total | 5.09 GB | 3.25 GB |
| branch VRAM (`cache_gpu`) | ~4.3 GB | ~2.2 GB |
| peak VRAM while loading | — | ~4.7 GB lower |

Faster: the branch's dispatched matmuls run **2.7x** faster than bf16, and the
A/B render finished **~1.2x** faster end-to-end (~111 s -> ~95 s, single run
each).

## BF16 vs INT8 ConvRot — A/B

8 steps, er_sde / beta, 1280x736 / 61 frames, merge, `cache_gpu`, same seed.
Identical output; wall clock from a single run each (±5 s sampling).

## Install

Download this repo into `ComfyUI/models/vdn/` (the folder name becomes the `vdn_checkpoint` entry), then select it in the Apply-VDN node's
`vdn_checkpoint` dropdown. Nothing else changes; the base MiniMax-H3 model and
this node's settings work exactly as before.

## Ref2V example

Rendered with this repo's INT8 ConvRot stage on a `ref2va` base: 8 steps,
er_sde / beta, 928x928.

## How it was made

`tools/quantize_vdn_branch_int8.py` from the ComfyUI-VDN-H3 repo, using
comfy-kitchen's `TensorWiseINT8Layout` (convrot, per-channel) — the same
serialization ComfyUI ships for its own int8-convrot diffusion models. Only the
branch's dispatched linear weights are quantized; adapters, biases, norms and
convs pass through untouched.
