CORSAIR PRO Joins Ansys Technology Partner Program
CORSAIR has joined the Ansys Technology Partner Program, part of Synopsys, to deliver high-performance computing systems built around Ansys engineering software, according to an official announcement published on the CORSAIR newsroom on November 12, 2026. At the center of the collaboration is CORSAIR PRO, the company's workstation, server, and cluster platform, which is meant to run Ansys applications locally so simulation and visualization can stay on site. The notice does not list an embargo. KAZI Magazine covered another CORSAIR launch today.
Roland Oberdorfer, chief technology officer at CORSAIR, said a CORSAIR PRO FlexPrime R80T workstation delivers over 400 TFLOPS of single-precision performance locally, and a FlexGrid MG4E2 reaches nearly 500 TFLOPS of double-precision performance. The announcement frames the partnership as a way to give engineers a local, private, and secure platform for demanding simulation and visualization work, keeping sensitive data in-house and avoiding recurring cloud compute costs. Prith Banerjee, senior vice president of the Synopsys Innovation Group, said the work with CORSAIR is meant to broaden access to high-performance computing as simulation and AI workloads grow more demanding.
CORSAIR says it will evaluate CORSAIR PRO systems with Ansys applications and build workload-informed configurations that account for the tools in use, model size, compute needs, licensing, and budget. Andrew Nelson, director of professional computer products at CORSAIR, said simulation teams rarely run one Ansys tool, and that Fluent, Mechanical, and LS-DYNA each stress hardware differently. The announcement groups users into engineering and design, rendering and visualization, and AI and simulation, and maps FlexPrime workstations, FlexGrid GPU servers, and CORSAIR PRO clusters to those jobs.
CORSAIR will exhibit in the Synopsys booth at SC26, November 15 to 20, in Chicago, with a CORSAIR PRO system running an Ansys Fluent simulation and results streamed into NVIDIA Omniverse for live visualization. The company also plans to bring a Fanatec racing simulator powered by CORSAIR PRO hardware.
