Feature highlights — shared with gpt-oss-20b
- Agentic capabilities — native function calling, web browsing, Python tool calls, and structured outputs.
- Full chain-of-thought — complete access to the model's reasoning process for easier debugging and increased trust.
- Configurable reasoning effort — adjust reasoning effort (low, medium, high) based on the use case and latency needs.
- Fine-tunable — fully customize through parameter fine-tuning.
- Apache 2.0 license — permissive licensing for experimentation, customization, and commercial deployment.
Quantization
MoE weights are quantized to MXFP4 (4.25 bits per parameter), enabling the 120B model to fit on a single 80GB GPU. Ollama collaborated with OpenAI to benchmark against their reference implementations to ensure the same quality.
Best practices
- Frontier open reasoning — the larger variant for demanding reasoning and agentic tasks.
- Reasoning effort — tune low/medium/high per request to balance depth and latency.
- Deployment — single 80GB GPU locally, or served via
:120b-cloud on Ollama's infrastructure.
