Corsair has introduced Corsair Pro, a new portfolio of enterprise hardware designed for scaling AI workloads. The launch marks an expansion of the company's hardware footprint into dedicated AI infrastructure, grouping professional desktop workstations and rackmount servers.

The Corsair Pro hardware selection is divided into two system tracks depending on scale. The workstation segment includes the FlexPrime V20R, FlexPrime V50R, FlexPrime V80T, and the rack-convertible FlexPrime R80T, which are configured for local AI execution, prototyping, and shared research lab environments. The server segment introduces the FlexGrid G2E2, FlexGrid MG4E2, FlexGrid HG8E2, and FlexGrid MI8E2 to handle multi-GPU computing, distributed cluster training, and high-density production environments.

Within the deskside platform lineup, the FlexPrime V80B workstation is the highlight. This model is powered by the Nvidia GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Desktop Superchip, which uses its shared-memory architecture to support dense data modelling and large-parameter workloads directly at a desktop station. The systems can be ordered with a pre-validated software stack that includes pre-installed versions of PyTorch and TensorFlow calibrated to the specific hardware layout, along with pre-configured Docker and Kubernetes environments.

The Corsair Pro systems will be available in multiple configurations, split up by memory capacities, accelerator types, and processing environments. General availability and regional component choices will vary by model and region. The cheapest units start at around $1,050 (without OS, CPU, memory, storage, or GPU).
