IT House reported on August 9 that according to a CCTV News report today, reporters learned from the National Development and Reform Commission that since the beginning of this year, my country’s computing power base has been further consolidated, and the first nationally produced 100,000-calorie artificial intelligence super cluster has been officially put into use. It marks that my country’s computing power infrastructure construction has entered a new stage of 100,000-card deployment. The report mentioned that many computing power nodes across the country are ushering in a new round of computing power expansion. At the core node of the National Supercomputing Internet in Zhengzhou, the first nationally produced 100,000-card artificial intelligence super cluster was put into operation. Staff told reporters that what is special here is that the integrated computing power of scientific computing and intelligent computing has made a forward-looking layout for new computing needs that may arise in the future. Bu Jingde, chief engineer of high-end computing at the National High-Performance Computer Engineering Technology Research Center, said that the peak computing power of this new computing cluster per second is equivalent to 200 years of continuous computing for all mankind. It is now supporting more than 300 computing tasks in 26 fields such as new materials, innovative drugs, and artificial intelligence.

Sugon 8000 (Dengfeng) adopts the "super-intelligent fusion" technology route to meet the combined needs of high-precision scientific computing and low-precision intelligent computing. It supports full precision from FP64 to INT8, and can cover scientific computing, large model training, AI reasoning, industrial simulation and other scenarios. On July 17, IT House went to the 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference and took photos of the real "Dawn 8000 (Dengfeng)" machine. This system uses immersed phase-change liquid cooling technology, which can support MW-level high power density deployment in a single cabinet, and improves cluster energy efficiency through domestic refrigerant and year-round natural cooling.
