Times are per whole clip (model load and text encoding included); the first run is slower due to kernel compilation. ⚠ = weight offloading / noticeably slower; ✕ = not recommended.

Recommended combo (Blackwell-specific (50-series 16GB+))

768p 5s; 4-8 steps; 1-5 min per clip

NVFP4 requires sm_120; SLA / VSA sparse attention can speed things up further (1.4-1.75x on long clips, see the attention options in step 2)

FAQ

Can the RTX 4060 Ti 16GB run MiniMax H3?

Yes. Estimated with 32GB RAM + fast-disk: 1920×1088·10s at ~1.0 h per clip. Configs that exceed VRAM fall back to weight offloading (slower, but they still render).

How fast is H3 on the RTX 4060 Ti 16GB?

About 1.0 h per 1920×1088·10s clip (including model load and encoding). Longer or denser clips scale quadratically in the attention term.

How much RAM do I need?

At least 64GB of system RAM recommended (minimum 32GB plus a 16GB pagefile). With 32GB, always enable --fast-disk or weights spill into the pagefile.

How can I make it faster?

Stack step distillation (e.g. LightX2V Turbo 4-step v1.1 768p), enable SageAttention / Kitchen attention; for long clips try SLA / VSA sparse attention. All of it is switchable in step 2 of the calculator.
