Which AI generators will actually run on your GPU

We install and run the generators ourselves — from 3D models and video to sound effects. We write down how much VRAM each needs, what runs on CUDA and what works on Apple MPS and AMD ROCm, which is open source and which is a cloud subscription.

The illustrations are AI-generated — examples of what the catalogued tools do, not their live output. Memory thresholds come from the fact sheets.

Pick a type, a chip — CUDA, Apple MPS or AMD ROCm — and a VRAM ceiling. What remains are the models that actually start. Requirements are as described by the authors, with a source and check date for every value.

Fresh arXiv papers and model releases — briefly, with a note on what you can already run yourself.

From points to a model

This is how every 3D generator works: first a point cloud, then a surface, then materials. Click and we show it step by step. The page stays light when opened: the frames load only when you ask.

01Prompt or photoOne image or one line of text — the input of almost any generator.
02Point cloudThe model predicts volume: voxels, points, a latent grid.
03Mesh and texturesPolygons, UVs, PBR maps. This is where things break most often.
04Engine or printerWhat you can actually hand to Blender, Unreal or a 3D printer.

The frames load only now, not when the page opens. They are AI-generated illustrations — a real viewer will appear when our “3D from a picture” tool goes live.
