Gemini 3 Pro vs NVIDIA: Nemotron 3 Nano 30B A3B benchmark

This page compares Gemini 3 Pro (Google) and NVIDIA: Nemotron 3 Nano 30B A3B (nvidia) using the latest snapshots we have as of Aug 17, 2026. NVIDIA: Nemotron 3 Nano 30B A3B wins on output price at $0.2/1M. Gemini 3 Pro has the larger context window (2M tokens). Every cell below is a dated snapshot from a named public source — we do not invent missing scores, and we do not run SWE-bench ourselves.

Quick answer

Gemini 3 Pro vs NVIDIA: Nemotron 3 Nano 30B A3B is a dated snapshot, not a lab score. NVIDIA: Nemotron 3 Nano 30B A3B is the cheaper output token. Elo is crowd preference, not an exam. Pick the column that matches the job.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which is better overall, Gemini 3 Pro or NVIDIA: Nemotron 3 Nano 30B A3B?
We do not have preference Elo for both models, so we do not declare an overall winner. Compare the metrics that exist.
Which is better at coding, Gemini 3 Pro or NVIDIA: Nemotron 3 Nano 30B A3B?
SWE-bench is missing for at least one model, so we do not rank coding from a single number.
Which is cheaper to run in production?
NVIDIA: Nemotron 3 Nano 30B A3B output tokens are $0.2/1M versus $5/1M. Input prices and retry rates still move the real bill.
Which is faster, Gemini 3 Pro or NVIDIA: Nemotron 3 Nano 30B A3B?
We do not have TTFT for both models.
Which has the larger context window?
Gemini 3 Pro accepts 2M tokens versus 262k.
Can I self-host either model?
Neither model is marked open-weights here. You are comparing hosted APIs.
Are these scores from CompareLLM’s own evals?
No. V1 aggregates public leaderboards (and optional first-party latency pings). Each cell names its source and date. Read /methodology.
What does preference Elo mean on this page?
Preference Elo is a crowd vote from LMArena / Arena. People see two hidden answers and pick the one they like more. The model that wins more often gets a higher Elo. That means people preferred it — not that it passed a school test. It is not SWE-bench, not accuracy, and not a number we invent. Gemini 3 Pro and NVIDIA: Nemotron 3 Nano 30B A3B Elo cells are dated snapshots from the named source — we do not compute Arena ourselves.
