[D] Massive amount of RAM needed to run a model. (alien.top)

I have a good PC, but the problem is with my RAM. The model is LLM, which makes the memory requirement understandable, but I can't afford to get that much RAM right now so I'm looking for a roundabout. Any help?

Sell your old ram and use the $ to upgrade. If you have an extra slot, search for donated ram and drop it in (it needs to be the same make/model/density). Or, use a flash drive as readyboost, a server to do the heavy lifting, using VRAM, etc.
