Can MacBook Neo A18 Pro 8GB run gpt-oss-120b?

Apple · 8 GB LPDDR5X · 60 GB/s bandwidth · OpenAI · 120.4B (active 5.1B) · MoE · model ctx up to 128K

Fit & speed by quant and context

Fits = weights + KV(ctx) + 0.5 GB overhead ≤ 95% of VRAM. Measured anchors are context-agnostic; the fit verdict is recomputed per context. A missing tok/s means the model is far beyond this card (offload-only territory).
