Nemotron-4 15B vs o1-pro

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

Nemotron-4 15B is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 52 to 33. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.

o1-pro is the reasoning model in the pair, while Nemotron-4 15B 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. o1-pro gives you the larger context window at 200K, compared with 32K for Nemotron-4 15B.

Quick Verdict

Pick Nemotron-4 15B if you want the stronger benchmark profile. o1-pro only becomes the better choice if knowledge is the priority or you need the larger 200K context window.
