Z-Image Turbo — NVFP4 pack for ComfyUI

An NVFP4-quantized build of Z-Image Turbo plus everything ComfyUI needs to run it, packaged for Blackwell GPUs (RTX 5090, DGX Spark / GB10) where NVFP4 runs natively.

The full writeup — how it was quantized and how it actually performs — is at ai-muninn.com.

Why NVFP4

NVFP4 is Blackwell's native 4-bit format. On a 5090 / GB10 it roughly halves the diffusion model's VRAM versus fp8/bf16 while keeping the tensor cores fed — so Z-Image Turbo's few-step generation stays fast without spilling to system RAM. FP8 / FP4 text-encoder variants are included so you can trade quality vs. footprint on the encoder side too.
