MiMo-V2.6-Flash-RL vs Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B

MiMo-V2.6-Flash-RL 45

File safety 5, the weights are safetensors, but the dflash folder's mask_embedding.pt is a pickle beside them (15). Provenance 15, the files sit in the XiaomiMiMo organisation, which mimo.xiaomi.com links to per the Distill listing (10). Safety evaluation 0, no safety results on the card. Agent guidance 5, General cautions only. Licence risk 15, MIT has no use policy, threshold or change clause. Security programme 5, Xiaomi runs a company security centre for reporting flaws, as read for the Distill listing (5). 5 + 15 + 0 + 5 + 15 + 5 = 45.

Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B 65

File safety earns 15, safetensors only but with 10 off because the documented serving commands pass trust-remote-code and the repository ships model and parser code. Provenance earns 15, files in NVIDIA's linked organisation with a hash for every file. Safety evaluation earns 0, since NVIDIA says it evaluated content safety but publishes no results. Agent guidance earns 10, a subcard that names prompt injection and says what safeguards to add, without an instruction hierarchy or concrete mitigations. Licence risk keeps all 15. The security programme earns 10 for the vulnerability submission route on the card and NVIDIA's public bulletins.

MiMo-V2.6-Flash-RL 59

Model card 14, Intended use, the architecture, the parameters, the context and the languages (in the metadata) are on the card. Training data 5, A description of the training method with no data sources, sizes or cut-off. Last change 20, the last commits, on 28 October 2026, updated the card, 13 days before this check. Responsiveness 5, Of the 13 most recent discussions that aren't pull requests (21 September to 6 November 2026), 3 have a reply from a XiaomiMiMo member, which is a few. Version policy 5, MiMo-V2.5 stays in its own repositories and V2.6 came out in new ones, with no dated note on the older cards that we read. File health 10, Config, template and card agree on the architecture and the 1M context, and two early faults (invalid JSON in the draft model's config, preprocessor values) were fixed in commits that say so. 14 + 5 + 20 + 5 + 5 + 10 = 59.

Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B 70

The model card earns 20, all seven items with limitations in the linked subcard. Training data earns 20, datasets listed with sources and token counts and the corpora published. Last change earns 20, counting NVIDIA's own inference code for the model, as on Nemotron 3 Ultra and Nano. The repositories last changed with a card edit on 25 August 2026, but NVIDIA's TensorRT-LLM, which the card's serving commands use, changed its Nemotron-H model code on 14 October, 18 days ago. Responsiveness earns 0, with no NVIDIA reply in any of the nine discussions, re-counted on 1 November. Version policy earns 5 as a first release. File health earns 5, since a generation report waits without a reply and one card link is dead. 20+20+20+0+5+5 = 70.

MiMo-V2.6-Flash-RL 65

Memory 5, the smallest build at 4 bits or better is ggml-org's MXFP4 GGUF, 168.93 GB with its projector, and 168.93 GB × 1.2 = 202.7 GB, within 256 GB. Xiaomi's own files are 177.74 GB. ggml-org's Q2_K is below 4 bits and isn't read. Runtimes 20, Released vLLM 0.33.0 and SGLang 0.5.23 have the mimo_v2 model and the mimo parsers, Transformers 5.22.2 has a mimo_v2_flash model, and llama.cpp b12242 has the architecture, with a GGUF from its own organisation. Builds 10, one precision from Xiaomi, the 4-bit files it releases. Terms 15, MIT in the card's metadata, an OSI licence. Download 10, the Hub API reports gated false on 10 November 2026, so the files download with no account and nothing to accept. Hosted 5, the card says it is on Xiaomi's MiMo Open Platform API and on OpenRouter, and Novita is live for it on Hugging Face. 5 + 20 + 10 + 15 + 10 + 5 = 65.

Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B 75

Memory earns 10, because the smallest 4-bit build, NVIDIA's 80.3 GB NVFP4, needs about 96 GB with the fifth added, which fits the reference machine but not 64 GB, and Ollama's 87 GB build lands in the same band. Runtimes earn the full 25 from released Transformers, vLLM, SGLang, llama.cpp and Ollama. Builds earn 15 for NVIDIA's own FP8 and NVFP4. Terms earn 10, since the Nemotron licence is custom even though it's free for commercial use with no threshold or use policy. Download earns 10, with no gate or account. Hosted earns 5, since NVIDIA's own API serves it.

MiMo-V2.6-Flash-RL 85

Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (3,868 characters), with a copy in tokenizer_config.json. Tool-calling format 25, the card names the parser to use in two runtimes: the mimo tool-call parser in SGLang and in vLLM, with auto tool choice, and both ship it in a release. Trained tool calling 20, the card describes reinforcement learning on coding and general agent tasks across several harnesses, and the template renders every call in a turn. Structured output 0, Nothing on the card about JSON or schema-constrained output. Reasoning control 10, the template has an enable_thinking switch and keeps reasoning_content, and the card names the mimo reasoning parser for SGLang and vLLM, which returns the reasoning apart from the answer. Context 10, 1M tokens per the card's model summary, and 1,048,576 positions in config.json. 20 + 25 + 20 + 0 + 10 + 10 = 85.

Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B 90

The chat template earns 20, a Jinja file in the repository. The tool-calling format earns 25, since NVIDIA documents the format, names the qwen3_coder parser for three runtimes and shows a tool call in its cookbook. Trained tool calling earns 20, with tool-use reinforcement learning and several calls per turn in the template. Structured output earns 5, claimed from training with no instructions. Reasoning control earns 10, thinking off, low effort or a budget per request with the trace returned as reasoning_content. Context earns 10 for 262,144 tokens in the config and up to 1M per the card.
