Which should you choose?
Which is better: GPT-4o, Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct or Mistral Large 2407?
GPT-4o is the better all-round choice, scoring 51/100 against Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct (44) and Mistral Large 2407 (43). It leads on capability and inputs & features. The score weighs capability 67%, inputs & features 20%, context window 13%.
Which is cheaper, GPT-4o, Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct or Mistral Large 2407?
Mistral Large 2407 is cheaper at $2.00 input / $6.00 output per million tokens (median across 5 API providers). GPT-4o costs $2.50 input / $10.00 output per million tokens (official OpenAI API price). At a typical mix of three input tokens to one output token, that is $3.00 per million tokens for Mistral Large 2407 versus $4.38 for GPT-4o (1.5× as much). Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct has no published per-token price.
Which scores higher on benchmarks?
GPT-4o scores higher on the Capabilities Index (ECI): GPT-4o 129.0 (#141 of 165), Mistral Large 2407 127.6 (#144 of 165) and Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct 125.5 (#150 of 165). The confidence ranges of the top two overlap (124.7–131.3 vs 123.3–129.4), so treat the gap as small. On individual benchmarks: GPQA Diamond — Mistral Large 2407 49.0%, GPT-4o 48.9%, Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct 41.0%; OTIS Mock AIME 2024–2025 — Mistral Large 2407 8.5%, GPT-4o 6.3%, Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct 2.6%.
Which is better for coding?
There are no published SWE-bench Verified results for GPT-4o, Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct and Mistral Large 2407 yet, so there is no like-for-like coding score. On overall capability, GPT-4o leads, which tends to carry over to coding, but test on your own codebase. All three support tool calling for agent workflows.
Which has the bigger context window?
Mistral Large 2407 has the largest context window at 131,072 tokens, against 128,000 for GPT-4o and 128,000 for Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct. Maximum output per response: GPT-4o up to 16,384, Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct up to 4,096, Mistral Large 2407 up to 104,857 tokens.
Which can read images, PDFs, audio or video?
GPT-4o accepts text, images and PDFs; Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct accepts text and images; Mistral Large 2407 accepts text and PDFs. GPT-4o handles the widest range of inputs.
Are any of these open source?
Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct and Mistral Large 2407 publishes its weights (Llama 3.2 Community License) and can be self-hosted; GPT-4o is proprietary.
Which is newer?
Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct is the newest, released Sep 25, 2024. Mistral Large 2407 came out Jul 24, 2024; GPT-4o came out May 13, 2024. Knowledge cutoff: GPT-4o Sep 2023, Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct Dec 2023, Mistral Large 2407 Mar 31, 2024.
How do you decide the winner?
Each model gets a 0–100 score on capability (50%, independent benchmark results); price (25%, blended price per million tokens (3 input : 1 output), log scale); inputs & features (15%, image, PDF, audio and video input, tool calling, structured output and reasoning); context window (10%, maximum tokens per request, log scale). Dimensions missing for any model are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so every model is judged on the same evidence. Specs and prices come from public model listings and the labs’ own API pages; capability scores come from independent benchmark runs. Data updated Nov 2, 2026.
