Can the Intel Arc B580 Run gpt-oss-20b?
Offload
Not entirely. gpt-oss-20b at MXFP4 is a 12.1 GB download (Hugging Face file listing for ggml-org/gpt-oss-20b-GGUF), about 0.1 GB more than the Intel Arc B580's 12 GB, so the remainder has to be offloaded to system RAM. Generation speed is then set by system-memory and PCIe bandwidth rather than by the GPU, so no tokens-per-second figure is quoted for this pair. The smallest card in this matrix that holds it entirely is the RTX 4060 Ti 16GB (16 GB).

More about this pair
How much VRAM does gpt-oss-20b need?
The MXFP4 file is 12.1 GB. Add roughly 1.5 GB for the runtime and an ~8K-token context, so about 13.6 GB of VRAM holds it comfortably. Longer contexts grow the KV cache and need more.
What speed does gpt-oss-20b reach on the Intel Arc B580?
No published run of gpt-oss-20b on the Intel Arc B580 has been cited yet. gpt-oss-20b is a mixture-of-experts model that reads about 2.08 GB of active weights per token, so the Intel Arc B580's 456 GB/s of memory bandwidth puts the theoretical ceiling near 219 tokens per second once the whole model is resident. That is an upper bound, not a speed estimate: kernel, launch and compute overhead keep real runs below it.

How the checks work
The fit is the MXFP4 file size against the card's VRAM, with 1.5 GB kept for the runtime and an ~8K context. A published run counts only if the pair fits, the run is Q4-class, its source does not call it an estimate, it is under the bandwidth ceiling (memory bandwidth ÷ GB read per token: the whole file for a dense model, only the active experts' weights for a mixture-of-experts model such as gpt-oss-20b or Qwen3 30B-A3B, which is why those can post figures above bandwidth ÷ file size), it is not slower than the same card on a model twice its size, a single run is not slower than the same card on a larger dense model, and it is not one figure pasted across many cards.
