Can the RTX 6000D run gpt-oss-120b?

Just. gpt-oss-120b at Q4_K_M needs about 71.8 GB of the RTX 6000D's 84 GB, running at an estimated 202 tok/s. Keep context short and close other GPU apps.

Estimates. Needs = weights + 1.8 GB for KV cache and runtime at modest context. Speed is single-stream decode scaled from the RTX 6000D's 1570 GB/s bandwidth (Estimated from memory bandwidth (llama.cpp decode)). Long contexts need more memory and run slower.

Can the RTX 6000D run gpt-oss-120b?

Just. gpt-oss-120b at Q4_K_M needs about 71.8 GB of the RTX 6000D's 84 GB, running at an estimated 202 tok/s. Keep context short and close other GPU apps.

How much VRAM does gpt-oss-120b need?

About 70 GB of weights at Q4_K_M, 129 GB at Q8_0 and 241 GB at FP16. Add roughly 1.8 GB for the KV cache and runtime at modest context lengths.

How fast is gpt-oss-120b on the RTX 6000D?

Roughly 202 tokens per second at Q4_K_M (single user, llama.cpp-style decode). This is an estimate from the RTX 6000D's 1570 GB/s memory bandwidth; as a mixture-of-experts model only about 5.1B parameters are read per token, which is why it is faster than its size suggests.
