We are working on improvecd ETAs and progress for these new models. The first run is generally inaccurate due to model downloads required, unzipping, or loading the models. Hopefully the runs after that are higher accuracy. ---

The large underestimates persist after several runs of the same model. ---

> [@david.123](#): > > LOL, that is a LARGE image Yes it is. Did take 25 Minutes to render each step. There was an Denoise Max step too but i did not show the result. A RTX 5090 would be, in theory, 14 minutes faster (40%) but thats just guessing. Brought the Ryzen 9950X3D2 and it just feels great. ---

I unfollowed Topazlabs on Instagram. After they posted a video of a monster ballerina with a bat’s nose for a head, who’s anorexic and dancing through a forest. That’s where I draw the line. I don’t want to be associated with something like that. ---

Superfocus 3 on RTX 3080 TI (12GB) hitting 99% vram during pre-processing. Appears to be loading model over and over again. Hits 99%, then 14%, then 50%, then 99%. Is this a bug or a feature? ---

High Fidelity v3 exhibits excessive smoothing; any input image defaults to a strength of 75, and even when manually reduced to 1, the result remains smoother than in HF v2. source ![A123](https://community-cdn.topazlabs.com/original/4X/d/f/2/df201df7377defb0a647d47ad216ee4cd98bc553.jpeg) HF V3 ![HF V3-75](https://community-cdn.topazlabs.com/original/4X/d/b/f/dbfb10dd62f8ad2409e84c510b7b3d65f0957612.jpeg) HF V2 ![HF V2-AUTO](https://community-cdn.topazlabs.com/original/4X/c/a/8/ca8fb30e02233fe0850dde576cc0c2fe471f760a.jpeg) ---

can you send the image used and your app logs (Help, Open Logs Folder, send all files) to [support@topazlabs.com](mailto:support@topazlabs.com) and we can see what is happening in the logs and attempt to recreate it with your file. ---

Once the calculations are complete—especially with large images—you must save the results without moving the cursor first. Otherwise, the results will be lost. Loading the new Neuroserver models takes a very long time, but with Wonder 2, it’s really fast.
