FROM 30 MINUTES TO 19 SECONDS! Nvidia RTX Super Resolution in ComfyUI
322 segments
Hi guys. Hi everyone. Welcome back. I'm
Edo. Thank you to be here in my channel
when where we talk about um advanced um
AI generation models. Um today I'm just
recording in English just because I want
to practice uh a little bit. Um and
today we are talking about uh Nvidia RTX
upscaler. A new powerful super
resolution upscaler that I tested in
this during these days many times. I
made many many tests and I want to share
with you my thought about this model and
it's um its capabilities
and I want to test this uh this node
with another powerful open-source um
upscaler um seed war 2 uh that I'm using
um nowadays for upscaling video and
images image. So today it's um a test
day and I want to show you how to
install this node and to face with
problems you can uh you can handle um
and I want to show you the reference and
the problem and um the the uh the notes
about this tool. So first of all you
need your confi of course and you need a
um
update version of confi. Remember uh if
you are using a portable confiu like me
you have to go in this folder update in
your confui folder and in update you
have to doubleclick update confui.bat
that. So you had uh you have um updated
confi and you can work with um and the
first thing you have to do it's go to
extensions and to all extension if you
if you prefer and type RTX
and you will find this node here
confi_vidia_tx
uh node okay Um
this this is
important video
super video
super resolution maybe
no there is there isn't another another
one so you can um
um you you have to choose just this one
you you don't have to work around just
this this node you have to um switch on.
So it is it install everything. You have
to made um a restart and maybe you will
find an error. Maybe I faced this error
many times. So I had to work a lot to
find a resolution and the the resolution
is here.
You have to um to go in this
um in this folder, the confi folder and
you have to go in python embed. Okay,
right here and you have to type cmd. So
you enter in your control and then you
have to uh copy and paste this your this
uh prompt here. This will uh install
everything you need this Nvidia uh VFX
uh through the uh right um uh site.
Okay, right folder. So once you done
this you can use it and you have to of
course uh restart everything and you can
see the complex you know um workflow
of course I'm joking the I I delete this
it's unusable my my test you have to
link a load image node uh a girl I made
with Z image Okay, I used my, you know,
um my workflow. This one
you can find in uh in my
um buy me a coffee repository. It's a
it's a useful tool um that create with
an agent with the quen
that refine your prompt simple prompt
and create something useful for you know
advertising fashion. So uh skin tones
colors lights everything for uh sorry
for image like this. Okay very powerful
in my opinion but it's not the the topic
of the video. So once you have have you
once you have your image you are just to
upload it and to use this RTX double
click RTX super resolution note this one
and we have just just two or you know
three options
that it's a cool feature or not. It it
depends. Now we'll see the the method.
Uh the resize type you have to choose
scale by multiplier. So I'm want to
scale by two.
So we want to to to go up to 5,000
pixels. So maybe a a 5K resolution.
Okay. and the quality that I I I don't
know the the the meaning of of this this
four um level I'm using ultra I'm using
um a 5060 Ti with 16 gig of V RAM so I'm
I'm quite uh sure it works and it work
uh as you can see and and that's it
and that's it
and when you. I want to to show you
this. And when you press run,
okay,
this is the the the speed.
Now I'm recording. Okay.
I just want to show you the the
different the difference. Okay.
Um
maybe we can try with another image if
we want
just to this one. Okay, it's the same.
Okay, by two by four maybe. Okay.
Okay, this is the speed of the
the the process
and I'm facing
5,000 pixels. Okay, 3 seconds.
3 seconds.
uh with recording. Okay, without
recording I'm I'm less than 1 second.
Okay, I had previously 0
49 seconds for an upscaler.
It's
in my opinion amazing. Okay. In terms in
in pure terms of speed,
the same image, the same image with
um seed war 2.
And you have to work a little bit with
this uh you know um with workflow. You
need to choose the the right model for
the details. You need to write choosing
the blocks uh the resolution. You have
to do something with your your hands
and you can reach this. I can reach this
uh resolution
uh with my with my GPU without uh enter
in uh out of memory mode. So this is the
maximum for me. So is less than this one
but however very powerful 4K. Okay. And
this this workflow I don't want to to
show you the process because it's very
heavy with the the the the recording. I
I um I um um upscale this this image in
just a second. 49 seconds.
49 seconds. So
let's say without without recording
1 seconds
we without recording. Sorry this is the
video later without recording 49
seconds.
The difference is incredible.
I I I would say it's magic. Okay. But
now we have to be precise and
professional.
These two upscaled image are the same.
No. And I want to show you why.
This
is the
um right image I start with. So you can
see 2,000 pixels. Okay. to 2,7700
and and etc pixel 2k 3k you know 2k
image
this is the first image I create with
the image okay 2k cool I think it's fine
I think it's lovely
this is the ratio
as you can see
of the 4K resolution with RTX
And we we see something here. We see
something here. We see something here.
We see something here. Not so good in my
opinion.
Cause if we see
war, this is the right ratio.
It's a little bit lower than RTX because
RTX is 5,000 pixel. This is 4,000
pixels. But as you can see, the
difference in terms of, you know,
details
that Sid Voir 2 add to your image. It is
in my opinion very impressive.
It's impressive.
We barely see this uh this this nose
ring here.
We see here we see all this texture in
the lips on the lips.
We see a mess
here.
So
we have to be very, you know, honest in
this um in this test. I think it's
incredible in terms of speed, pure
speed. But in terms of resolution,
I don't know if I would use it for a
single image, uh, a single, you know,
hero image. Okay,
it's it's powerful.
Okay. So, we can
we can bring all to you know 4K to 2K.
Okay. From 4K to 2K right here.
And okay, we have uh you know a new
a new pixels. But
uh it's another way to look at these
images.
You have to look at the right
resolution. And this is not the right
resolution. So um
we need to focus to the you know the uh
the the right way to to look at this
this uh models. I think it's quite quite
good in terms of speed but for images I
think it's not worth the the
uh the the the
you know the matter but but
this is about image
very different thing if we are looking
at the videos
because
right here I have this, you know, uh,
workflow
for RTX upscale and you can find right
here example workflow right right here.
This is the workflow for the video for
RTX
RTX. And as you can see, we have a 1K
video,
very simple, 5 seconds
with a different focus on camera. And
this is the double
resolution.
Okay, I want to show you
a full full video, full screen.
This is the 2K video.
I think it's quite quite impressive. As
you can see, this is the the resolution
1,400 2,600
pixels for
starting from a video
700 by, you know, 1,300.
So we doubled the the resolution with a
very cool
um very cool uh res result.
And please listen carefully.
We have upscaled this video this five
seconds video in
I write it down
19 seconds.
19
Okay.
5 seconds in 19 5 seconds of video
upscale in 19 seconds locally.
Remember the number 19. Okay.
Uh this is the workflow for the video
upscale with you know um seed war.
And [sighs] as you can see right there
we have minor issues with the texture.
The model it's very sensitive and it
make crisps every single frame and when
the frame when when the frame are in
loop or in sequence the result it's
you know not so so polish like this one.
There are no artifacts
are no crisp business like like the base
video like the base video. This is 1K.
This is 2K.
It's the same, right? The same. This is
2K with C2 Vir. And we have a
flickering. We have this texture. We
have something very bad. But
the important thing is with seed voir 2
I
render this
video upscale in 29
minutes.
This is uh you know uh a game changer.
19 seconds. 19 19 seconds.
I will I would I want to say it in
Italian.
Half an hour here.
So once again,
I would use RTX RTX video upscaler for
everything. No, but for video, yes.
Yes, of course. Definitely.
It's it's, you know, I'm astonished
by this result.
19 seconds.
half an hour
there is a leap a quantum leap in terms
of of quality in terms of render time in
terms of everything in terms of
proficient way to use AI.
So my advice if you want to use a great
image upscaler open source I have no
doubt
this one seed 2 it's perfect
it's very very very perfect for your
images if you want to upscale your video
you have to choose RTX video from Nvidia
there is no there is no match
Not not in in a second. Okay. 19 seconds
for a 5-second video. Half an hour for
for the same same video.
And for today, it's all guys. Thank you.
Thank you to be to be here with me. Uh,
thank you for your comments, for your
feedback, for everything you need to to
to know. I try to uh to answer to your
question every time I could. And I hope
to see you next video. I want to show
you as much as I can of this kind of uh
incredible
videos. And I want to thank again uh
Stefano Flor uh that um
that sent me this this incredible tool
uh to try uh to experiment with. Graci
Stefano Solito um he's my pusher in
terms of uh uh you know uh candy for AI
and this tool is a very it's a
incredible candy. Um, once again, thank
you and I hope to see you next video.
For today, it's all so

In this video, Edo explores the new Nvidia RTX super resolution upscaler for ComfyUI, comparing its performance and quality against the open-source Supir 2 (Seed War 2) upscaler. While Supir 2 remains the preferred choice for high-detail 'hero' images due to its superior texture generation, the Nvidia RTX upscaler is a 'game changer' for video. It offers a massive leap in processing speed—rendering in seconds what takes Supir 2 half an hour—while also maintaining better visual consistency and reducing flickering artifacts in video sequences.
