Afaik you can substitute VRAM with RAM at the cost of speed. Not exactly sure how that speed loss correlates to the sheer size of these models, though. I have to imagine it would run insanely slow on a CPU.

I tested it with a 16GB model and barely got 1 token per second. I don't want to imagine what it would take if I used 16GB of swap instead, let alone 130GB.
