Benchmark data for GPT-5.1-Codex-Max and Qwen3 Max is coming soon on BenchLM.
Confidence note. This is a partial-evidence comparison with 12 shared benchmark results across 5 evidence categories; 0 of 8 categories currently have scoreable aggregates for both models. Treat the verdict as directional until coverage is more balanced.
Why this result
BenchLM has partial data for these models, but not enough overlapping benchmark coverage to produce a fair score-level comparison yet.
Qwen3 Max has the larger context window at 1M, compared with 400K for GPT-5.1-Codex-Max.
Category breakdown
Exact category averages are shown below. Not measured means BenchLM does not have enough sourced public coverage for that model and category.
Operational comparison

Frequently Asked Questions (3)
Can I compare GPT-5.1-Codex-Max and Qwen3 Max on BenchLM yet?
Not fully yet. BenchLM is tracking both models, but the sourced benchmark breakdown for this comparison is still coming soon.
Why does this comparison show “coming soon”?
BenchLM only shows category winners and benchmark-level calls when we have sourced results that can be compared fairly. For these models, the public benchmark coverage is not complete enough yet.
What data is available for GPT-5.1-Codex-Max and Qwen3 Max today?
GPT-5.1-Codex-Max: $1.25 input / $10.00 output per 1M tokens Both model pages still include creator, context window, reasoning mode, and other metadata while benchmark coverage fills in.
