Welcome to the RefBoard Blog

Most AI model news tells you what came out. Very little tells you what to actually use, with which settings, on a normal GPU.

That is what this site is for. Every article here comes from real renders on a real machine.

What you will find here

• Workflows: graphs that run, with every node setting written down so you can rebuild them.
• Comparisons: the same prompt and seed through different models, samplers or upscalers, shown side by side.
• Tips: the small fixes that save an evening, like the one setting that stops a crash.
• News: new models and nodes, once they have been tested here, not before.

How results are reported

Every comparison lists the hardware, the model files, the settings and the render time. If something only worked once, the article says so.

Tried a setup from an article and got a different result? Leave a comment with your settings. That is how these notes get better.
