Can the NVIDIA B200 run gpt-oss-120b?

Yes โ€” here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.

Q8 yes 178k 50-59.6 t/s ~0.2-0.3 (slow)
Q4 yes 335k 89.3-106.4 t/s ~0.4-0.5 (slow)

Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.

FAQ

Can the NVIDIA B200 run gpt-oss-120b?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~89.3-106.4 tok/s and fits up to 335k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~0.4-0.5 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 335k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
