I doubt this person actually had a computer than could run the 405b model. You need over 200gb of ram, let alone having enough vram to run it with gpu acceleration.

simple, just create 200GB of swap space and convince yourself that you really are patient enough to spend 3 days unable to use your computer while it uses its entire CPU and disk bandwidth to run ollama (and hate your SSD enough to let it spend 3 days constantly swapping)

SSD, huh? Real AI enthusiasts swap with an HDD.

I don't have any spare HDs but I can swap on a rewritable optical disc.
