Cadence has announced a new AI supercomputer featuring Nvidia RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs, HGX B200 systems, and CUDA-X tools designed to reduce simulation run time.
This system, called the Millennium M2000 Supercomputer, was announced during the company’s CadenceLIVE Silicon Valley 2025 event and is an addition to its Millennium Enterprise Platform. According to Cadence, the M2000 is designed for electronic design automation (EDA), system design and analysis (SDA), and drug discovery applications, allowing it to deliver up to 80 times better performance versus CPU-based systems.
The company initially specialized in EDA, allowing companies to build chips more efficiently. Some of its customers include Intel, AMD, Apple, and Nvidia, and they use Cadence’s tools to help develop next-generation chips. However, it has also expanded in other industries; for example, GE and NASA use its systems for both computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and SDA. It has also entered the life sciences field, with Pfizer and AstraZeneca using its products for drug discovery and molecular modeling.
