>i want to do some checkpoint merges to refine a style for my gen
With your card I suggest to save merges because otherwise both models need to be loaded into memory which is your older GPU doesn't have much to begin with
Optional step - you can merge their clip or use from either one
You can experiment with sampler/scheduler because euler is ancient sampler for SD, for SDXL models you want dpmpp2, give it a shot with either karras or beta scheduler and compare time/quality
