Confidence note. This is a partial-evidence comparison with 4 shared benchmark results across 3 evidence categories; 3 of 8 categories currently have scoreable aggregates for both models. Treat the verdict as directional until coverage is more balanced.
Why this result
GPT-5.4 Pro is clearly ahead on the provisional aggregate, 83 to 60. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
GPT-5.4 Pro's sharpest advantage is in agentic, where it averages 89.3 against 51.3. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is BrowseComp, 89.3% to 44.4%. Nemotron 3 Ultra does hit back in knowledge, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.
GPT-5.4 Pro is also the more expensive model on tokens at $30.00 input / $180.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.00 input / $0.00 output per 1M tokens for Nemotron 3 Ultra. That is roughly Infinityx on output cost alone. GPT-5.4 Pro gives you the larger context window at 1.05M, compared with 1M for Nemotron 3 Ultra.
