Recommended model, CUDA, drivers, etc. for a 4070 TI 16 VRAM❓

[ZeroCool22]

I just got a 4070 Ti 16Gb Super Asus Tuf Gaming Oc (i come from a 1080 TI) and i really don't know if i should wipe everything (CUDA, drivers, etc..) and get the last one of everything...

PD: RAM 32gb.

My go to with my 3060 - 12gb regarding the driver is v546.01
Everything after this version is a gain for xx90 series, but a speed loss for me. (£#%$!)
Give it a try. (Include the No Fallback Sysmem Policy)

I remember some time ago that option for Nvidia control panel: (Include the No Fallback System Policy) was slowing down generation speeds on SDXL, so now it's safe to use or we only need it for FLUX only?

Also, what option should i use?

I have a 5900x

And VAE/ENCODER is empty:

'Shared' for Swap Location is supposed to eventually be faster. I didn't notice any change with this one, tho.

Regarding the 'No Sysmem Fallback Policy', i'm always using it. Therefore I have to be careful with the resolutions.
My max is about 2.2MPixels per tile/image, then OOM. (I'm still using A1111 API until the Forge API is done. Waiting to finally switch to Forge)

VAE/TE are included in the NF4 versions. You'll need it if using another model.

Ah, btw, use the Studio driver, so you can see the CUDA usage in the task manager.

Cheers ! 🥂
