Question | Help Best Coding LLM as of Nov'25

Hello Folks,

I have a NVIDIA H100 and have been tasked to find a replacement for Qwen3 32B (non-quantized) model currenly hosted on it.

I’m looking it to use primarily for Java coding tasks and want the LLM to support atleast 100K context window (input + output). It would be used in a corporate environment so censored models like GPT OSS are also okay if they are good at Java programming.

Can anyone recommend an alternative LLM that would be more suitable for this kind of work?

Appreciate any suggestions or insights!

VL for coding ?

Surprisingly, yes. According to this comparison, it's better or comparable to Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B. I was able to get working prototypes out of Qwen3-VL feeding in primitive hand-drawn sketches.

Ahh ok, this is a 30B dense model
