GPT OSS 120B (Fireworks) vs Llama 3.3 70B Instruct (Fireworks): Summary
When comparing GPT OSS 120B (Fireworks) and Llama 3.3 70B Instruct (Fireworks) for API cost, the right choice depends on your workload's token profile, required features, and tolerance for latency. GPT OSS 120B (Fireworks) offers lower total cost at standard usage volumes (1,000 input + 500 output tokens per request at 100,000 requests/month) at $45.00/month, compared to $135.00/month for Llama 3.3 70B Instruct (Fireworks).
Both models are priced in USD per million tokens, the standard unit across all major AI API providers. GPT OSS 120B (Fireworks) charges $0.15/M for input tokens and $0.60/M for output tokens. Llama 3.3 70B Instruct (Fireworks) charges $0.90/M input and $0.90/M output. If your workload is output-heavy (more tokens generated than consumed as input), the model with the lower output price compounds cost savings significantly at scale.
Prompt caching is supported by both models. For workloads with large, repeated system prompts or document context — such as RAG pipelines or multi-turn conversations with a fixed knowledge base — prompt caching can reduce effective input costs by 60–90%, which may change the cost ranking between these two models at your specific usage pattern.
Context window capacity differs between the two: Both models support 131,072 tokens per request. A larger context window is essential for document summarization, large codebase analysis, and multi-document retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) applications.
