Strengths & weaknesses

Strengths

  • Among the fastest open models at its capability — roughly 450 output tokens/sec on hosted endpoints
  • Activates about a tenth of its parameters per token, so it serves far cheaper than its size implies
  • Handles very long inputs without the slowdown dense models hit, thanks to the hybrid state-space design

Weaknesses

  • Text-only, so no screenshots, diagrams or PDFs
  • Reasoning depth well short of frontier flagships — a fast workhorse rather than a hard-problem model

Middle of the Nemotron 3 family; 120B total / 12.7B active MoE. MMLU-Pro 83.73, SWE-bench Verified 60.47, AIME 2025 90.21 and HLE 18.26 per llm-stats' launch analysis. GPQA Diamond left null deliberately: the reported 79.23 is labelled "GPQA no tools", which NVIDIA's own report treats as distinct from GPQA Diamond. Pricing is DeepInfra's rate; OpenRouter lists $0.085/$0.40 and the cross-provider median is about $0.30/$0.80. Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index 36.0. Speed is Artificial Analysis' median across providers serving Nemotron 3 Super.
