CV Can I run CogVideoX-5B on AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (24GB)?
Yes. CogVideoX-5B runs on AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (24GB) at INT8 / fp8 (~16 GB of ~23 GB usable).
Runs at INT8 / fp8 using ~16 GB of ~23 GB usable.

How to run it
Use Diffusers or ComfyUI at INT8 / fp8. The big text encoder is loaded to encode your prompt, then offloaded before generation, which is why peak VRAM stays near the backbone size rather than the sum of every file.

FAQ
Can AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (24GB) run CogVideoX-5B?
Yes. CogVideoX-5B runs on AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (24GB) at INT8 / fp8 (~16 GB of ~23 GB usable).
How much VRAM does CogVideoX-5B need?
AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (24GB) has room to spare. At INT8 / fp8 the realistic peak is ~16 GB of VRAM, versus ~26 GB with every component kept resident (no offload). With aggressive CPU offload it drops to ~5 GB, much slower.
What do I use to run CogVideoX-5B locally?
CogVideoX-5B runs in Diffusers or ComfyUI. It loads as a video diffusion checkpoint plus its text encoder and VAE, not a single chat command.
