It's interesting that they mentioned in the release notes:

"Limited by the capacity of high-end computational resources, the current throughput of the Pro model remains constrained. We expect its pricing to decrease significantly once the Ascend 950 has been deployed into production."

Yup, I tried to benchmark it, but harder questions time out or get rate-limited...

Sorry, but exactly where in the article that you linked contains the mention of " Ascend 950"?

it's in the footnote text of the first figure of the section the link points to, where "昇腾950" means "Ascend 950"

OK, strange that it doesn't appear on my version of the webpage

This is the first figure of the section that the above links point to (https://api-docs.deepseek.com/zh-cn/img/v4-spec.png).

And I can read Chinese.
