"In NeuroStream 1, we enabled models with billions of parameters to run locally on consumer and lower-end hardware," says Xiaoyu (Kevin) Wang, Partner and Head of AI at Topaz Labs. "With NeuroStream 2, we've taken the next major leap forward to dramatically increase performance. User wait time has now dropped from minutes to seconds, which enables interactive, high-capacity workflows and a significantly better user experience. Topaz Research continues to push world-class innovation, bringing unique capabilities and experiences directly to our users."
NeuroStream 2 allows users of the Starlight Precise 2.5 video upscaling model to utilize a typical 12GB enthusiast PC setup. In this setup detailed below, the same task dropped from 30 minutes to just 14 minutes.
NVIDIA RTX 4070 Ti (12GB VRAM)
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
32GB RAM
That's 2X faster on hardware many creators already own.
Key models powered by NeuroStream 2 include Wonder 3, Denoise Max, Face Recovery 3, Super Focus 3, Starlight Precise 2.5, and Hyperion 2. NeuroStream 2 capabilities are available for all current subscribers on NVIDIA, AMD, and Mac hardware that meet the minimum requirements.
Also introduced are two new powerful image enhancement models, Face Recovery 3 and Noise-Aware Sharpen, expanded local support for Mac and AMD users, and a Topaz Plugin for Nuke VFX & Film Editing Software.
