Real-ESRGAN: Real World Super Resolution

ComfyUI Wiki

Real-ESRGAN x4plus provides real-world image super resolution upscaling by 4x, repackaged for ComfyUI.

Real-ESRGAN is a practical image super resolution model that upscales images by 4x while enhancing real-world details. It handles various degradations common in real images (blur, noise, compression artifacts). Repackaged for ComfyUI as a safetensors format model.

Usage in ComfyUI

Place the model file in ComfyUI/models/ root directory (or as directed by your ComfyUI upscaling node). Requires a ComfyUI custom node that supports Real-ESRGAN for loading and inference.
