Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B vs o1-pro

Side-by-side benchmark comparison across agentic, coding, multimodal, knowledge, reasoning, and math workflows.

Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 61 to 45. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.

Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B's sharpest advantage is in multilingual, where it averages 81.5 against 52. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is MMLU-ProX, 79 to 52. o1-pro does hit back in knowledge, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.

o1-pro is also the more expensive model on tokens at $150.00 input / $600.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.00 input / $0.00 output per 1M tokens for Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B. That is roughly Infinityx on output cost alone. o1-pro is the reasoning model in the pair, while Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B 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 120B A12B gives you the larger context window at 256K, compared with 200K for o1-pro.

Quick Verdict

Pick Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B if you want the stronger benchmark profile. o1-pro only becomes the better choice if knowledge is the priority or you want the stronger reasoning-first profile.
