Nemotron 3 Nano Omni 30B A3B vs Qwen3.8 Max

Decision reading

Qwen3.8 Max has the higher public score, 71.76 versus 40.77, and the 90% score intervals do not overlap.

5 results are shared. Category rows resting on Estimated evidence or different benchmark sets are marked directional and do not name a winner.

What is actually comparable

Shared results can support a head-to-head reading. Results present for only one model describe coverage, not superiority.

Like-for-like categories
2 / 8

3 categories rest on Estimated evidence or different evidence sets. Those rows remain visible for coverage context but do not name a winner.

Category results, on a stated basis

Each row shows the public-lane category score for both models: the BenchAlign lane for agentic, coding, and knowledge, and the weighted public rows elsewhere, with the same rank each model page reports. A row is like-for-like only when both scores rest on Supported evidence or the same weighted set. Directional and not-comparable rows remain visible, but they never receive a winner.

Ranks count the models scored in each category’s lane, so the agentic, coding, and knowledge denominators (BenchAlign) differ from the provisional-lane categories. Unranked scores sit on the lane’s scale but never name a winner. Like-for-like rows within 0.5 points read as a practical tie.

Shape of the matched evidence

Only shared public evidence is shown. Sparse evidence stays a ruled list rather than being closed into a radar shape.

Too few matched category axes support a radar. The ruled list below shows only shared benchmark results; positions use each benchmark’s normalized display scale when available.

What each workload costs

Three fixed token mixes turn per-token rates into comparable decisions. Each scenario states context fit and whether cached input had to fall back to the published list-input rate.

Questions

Which is better, Nemotron 3 Nano Omni 30B A3B or Qwen3.8 Max?

Qwen3.8 Max has the higher public score, 71.76 versus 40.77, and the 90% score intervals do not overlap. That is the clearest overall quality signal in the current public data.

Which is better for coding, Nemotron 3 Nano Omni 30B A3B or Qwen3.8 Max?

Qwen3.8 Max scores higher for coding on the public lane, 60.8 to 40.4. Nemotron 3 Nano Omni 30B A3B is scored on Estimated evidence for coding, so the reading is directional rather than like-for-like. BenchLM does not name a winner for coding from a directional reading; read the shared benchmark rows directly and test the models on the same task set.

Which is better for agentic tasks, Nemotron 3 Nano Omni 30B A3B or Qwen3.8 Max?

Qwen3.8 Max scores higher for agentic tasks on the public lane, 67.3 to 44.5. Nemotron 3 Nano Omni 30B A3B is scored on Estimated evidence for agentic tasks, so the reading is directional rather than like-for-like. BenchLM does not name a winner for agentic tasks from a directional reading; read the shared benchmark rows directly and test the models on the same task set.

Which costs less, Nemotron 3 Nano Omni 30B A3B or Qwen3.8 Max?

Both models do not have comparable published API token rates, so this page does not name a universal price winner.

Which has the larger context window, Nemotron 3 Nano Omni 30B A3B or Qwen3.8 Max?

Qwen3.8 Max has the larger documented context window: 1M, compared with 256K.
