## GPU ID
|
|
The GPU ID is used to manually specify a Vulkan enabled GPU to be used for upscaling images. According to the Real-ESRGAN documentation, you can use this option even for multi-GPUs.
|
|
|
|
To find out the GPU ID, follow these steps:
|
|
1. Open Upscayl and (try to) upscayl an image.
|
|
2. Go to the Settings tab and scroll down till you see the logs area.
|
|
3. You can now see all the GPU IDs available to you. As you can see from the image, 1 is Nvidia, 2 is llvmpipe and 0 is AMD Radeon.

|
|
* This screenshot is only an example. Actual ID values may vary.
|
|
4. Now in the 'GPU ID' input box, you can enter:
|
|
`0`
|
|
`1`
|
|
`2`
|
|
or even `0,1,2`
|
|
* On Windows, this setting may be overridden by the system if Upscayl has not been [set to performance mode](https://youtube.com/watch?v=sxvs6qYHJmc) under advanced display settings.
|
|
* This doesn't distribute the load evenly due to Real-ESRGAN shenanigans. See [#465](upscayl/upscayl/issues/465) for details.

## Custom Models
|
|
Since Upscayl v2.5, you can load your own NCNN models into Upscayl. To convert models from PyTorch, see [🖥️ Model Conversion Guide](../%F0%9F%96%A5%EF%B8%8F-Model-Conversion-%E2%80%90-Create-more-AI-models!). You could also load Upscayl's official [Custom Models Repository](https://github.com/upscayl/custom-models).
|
|
|
|
To use your custom models, follow these steps:
|
|
1. Make a folder called "models".
|
|
2. Put your NCNN models (in .bin + .param format) into the "models" folder.
|
|
3. Open Upscayl.
|
|
4. Go to the Settings tab and scroll down until you see the "Add Custom Models" area and the "Select Folder" button.
|
|
5. Select the "models" folder you created in step 1.
|
|
6. Go to the Upscayl tab and select the Upscayling type to the filename of the custom model you want to use.
|
|
|
|
## Scale Option
|
|
Since v2.8, Upscayl emulates the scale option by Downscayling the x4 image for unsupported models.
|
|
|
|
Not all models support x1, x2 and x3; all the default models only support x4. To use other scales as native model output, you can get the compatible models from the [Custom Models Repository](https://github.com/upscayl/custom-models). For example, with the `realesr-animevideov3-x2` model, you can use the scale x2; with `realesr-animevideov3-x3`, you can use the scale x3.
