LFM3-1.7B vs Nemotron 3 SuperWhich Is Better in 2026?

LFM3-1.7B vs Nemotron 3 Super: which should you choose in 2026?

LFM3-1.7B (by Liquid AI) and Nemotron 3 Super (by NVIDIA) are compared below. Here is how they stack up on benchmarks, price, and capabilities, and which one to pick in 2026.

There are not enough shared, protocol-compatible benchmark results to declare a performance leader.

LFM3-1.7B is about 1.4× cheaper on a blended 3:1 input/output basis ($0.11 vs $0.15625 per 1M tokens).

Nemotron 3 Super has the larger context window (1,048,576 tokens vs 262,144 tokens).

Choose LFM3-1.7B if…

  • • lower blended API cost matters for your workload

Choose Nemotron 3 Super if…

  • • you work with longer documents, transcripts, or codebases

The benchmark count includes only results measured with a matching benchmark version and protocol. Arena scores are shown separately. Missing, preliminary, and incompatible data is not treated as a controlled win. Published point-score comparisons are labeled separately when protocol details are incomplete. For text-output models, the verdict also compares token pricing and context windows.
