Side-by-side benchmark comparison across agentic, coding, multimodal, knowledge, reasoning, and math workflows.
GLM-5 (Reasoning) is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 49 to 25. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
GLM-5 (Reasoning)'s sharpest advantage is in reasoning, where it averages 90.9 against 24.9. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is SimpleQA, 24.9% to 92%.
GLM-5 (Reasoning) is the reasoning model in the pair, while DeepSeek V3 is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use. GLM-5 (Reasoning) gives you the larger context window at 200K, compared with 128K for DeepSeek V3.
Pick GLM-5 (Reasoning) if you want the stronger benchmark profile. DeepSeek V3 only becomes the better choice if you would rather avoid the extra latency and token burn of a reasoning model.
