Where each one wins

Tests won in each of the two areas where both have results. Each piece is one test, so a longer bar means more evidence; grey means the two scored within a point of each other.

Coding rests on a single test.

What it costs

Prices per million tokens, roughly 750,000 words. The bars show the cost of a million tokens read plus a million written.

Questions people ask

Which is better, GPT-4 Turbo or GPT-4o?

GPT-4o wins one of the two areas where both have results: coding. GPT-4 Turbo wins none. They are level on reasoning.

Which is better for coding?

GPT-4o. It wins the one coding test both models report.

Which is cheaper?

GPT-4 Turbo costs $10.00 per million input tokens and $30.00 per million output tokens; GPT-4o costs $5.00 and $15.00. That makes GPT-4o about 50% cheaper for the same work.

How do you compare the two?

We use the 27 benchmark tests both models have published scores on. The verdict counts the 3 tests in the eight capability areas, and a gap under one point (ten on rating-style scales) counts as a tie. The other 24 are listed but not counted, because several are summary scores or repeat a test. Each score is the one shown on the model's own page.
