> Juggernaut XL v7 sits between [**v6**](https://huggingface.co/RunDiffusion/Juggernaut-XL-v6) and [**v8**](https://huggingface.co/RunDiffusion/Juggernaut-XL-v8) in the **RunDiffusion Photo v1** generation of the Juggernaut SDXL line. Released for users who needed a refresh between the major v6 and v8 milestones.

> **⚠️ FP16 users:** if you see black images or NaN errors in fp16 inference, use the [**v7-fp16-vae-fix variant**](https://huggingface.co/RunDiffusion/Juggernaut-XL-v7-fp16-vae-fix) instead.

## When to use v7

- 🔬 You have **LoRAs or pipelines specifically validated against v7**.
- 📚 You're auditing the Juggernaut release line for research.

For new projects, **start with the latest Juggernaut models** instead.
