Comprehensive side-by-side LLM comparison
Both models show comparable benchmark performance. Grok 3 offers 884.3K more tokens in context window than GPT-OSS-20B. Grok 3 is $Infinity cheaper per million tokens. Grok 3 supports multimodal inputs. Both models have their strengths depending on your specific coding needs.
OpenAI
GPT-OSS-20B is an open-weight large language model with 20 billion parameters from OpenAI's open-source model initiative. It targets deployments requiring a smaller, efficient model that can run on consumer or mid-tier hardware while maintaining strong reasoning and coding capabilities relative to its size.
xAI
Grok 3, released by xAI in February 2025, is a large language model trained on xAI's Colossus supercluster with substantially increased compute over previous generations. It features a 1M token context window, RL-enhanced Think mode for extended reasoning, and demonstrated strong results on mathematics, coding, and scientific benchmarks. Grok 3 targets complex reasoning, real-time information tasks via X platform integration, and agentic workflows via the xAI API.
