Error for SDXL ControlNet on older GPUs (980ti)

I've been following this issue, reported here:
https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI/issues/1289

Reported as Resolved, but I still receive the same error when running on my 980ti (6gb vram).

Notes:
1) Performed all updates, reboot, re-run
2) SDXL Models (Lora/VAE) = working fine on same card
3) ControlNet 1.5 Models = working fine on same card ( depth, canny, openpose, etc tested & using regularly )
4) ONLY SDXL failure when using these new models
5) Running on multiple PCs and newer cards (also more vram) work fine with these new models
