Gemma 4 E2B· Nemotron 3 Super 100B

Quick Verdict

Pick Nemotron 3 Super 100B if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Gemma 4 E2B only becomes the better choice if coding is the priority or you want the stronger reasoning-first profile.

Nemotron 3 Super 100B is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 56 to 39. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.

Nemotron 3 Super 100B's sharpest advantage is in reasoning, where it averages 71 against 19.1. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is BBH, 21.9% to 83%. Gemma 4 E2B does hit back in coding, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.

Gemma 4 E2B is the reasoning model in the pair, while Nemotron 3 Super 100B 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. Nemotron 3 Super 100B gives you the larger context window at 1M, compared with 128K for Gemma 4 E2B.

Decision framing

BenchLM keeps the benchmark table and the operator tradeoffs on the same page so a better score does not hide a materially slower, pricier, or smaller-context model.

Runtime metrics show N/A when BenchLM does not have a sourced snapshot for that exact model. The scoring rules and freshness policy are documented on the methodology page.
