Side-by-side benchmark comparison across agentic, coding, multimodal, knowledge, reasoning, and math workflows.
o4-mini (high) has the cleaner overall profile here, landing at 63 versus 61. It is a real lead, but still close enough that category-level strengths matter more than the headline number.
o4-mini (high)'s sharpest advantage is in mathematics, where it averages 82.9 against 74.6. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is SimpleQA, 80 to 64. Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B does hit back in coding, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.
Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B gives you the larger context window at 256K, compared with 200K for o4-mini (high).
Pick o4-mini (high) if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B only becomes the better choice if coding is the priority or you need the larger 256K context window.
