What This Means for Your Simulations

8 Cores means this server can perform 8 calculations simultaneously.

Why this matters: CFD simulations divide your fluid domain into millions of cells. Each core can solve equations for different cells at the same time - more cores = dramatically faster solutions. A simulation that takes 24 hours on a 4-core laptop could finish in 3-4 hours with 8 cores.

Perfect for: Standard CFD projects - significantly faster than typical 4-8 core workstations, allowing quicker design iterations.

The 5 GHz clock speed determines how fast each core performs individual calculations - higher means faster processing for mesh generation, solving, and post-processing.

Memory (RAM)

64 GB
Type
DDR5

What This Means

64 GB is your simulation's "working space" - it holds all active data: mesh geometry, fluid properties, boundary conditions, and results during solving.

DDR5 provides high-bandwidth data access essential for CFD solvers that read and update millions of cell values thousands of times during iterations. This capacity handles standard to medium simulations with headroom for mesh refinement - significantly more than typical workstations with 16-32GB. Adequate RAM prevents solver crashes and slow virtual memory usage.

High-bandwidth memory for lightning-fast data access

Storage

2 x 1 TB
Type
NVMe SSD

What This Means

This server has 2 storage drives installed. Each drive is 1 TB, giving you a total storage capacity of 2 TB.

NVMe SSD storage provides extremely fast read/write speeds for your simulation files and results. NVMe is the fastest storage technology available - up to 5-10x faster than traditional SSDs for reading/writing large result files. Multiple drives provide redundancy and can be configured for increased performance or data protection.

Ultra-fast storage for rapid I/O operations

Network Speed

1 Gbit/s

Fast file transfers and remote access. Upload meshes and download results quickly from anywhere.

Monthly Traffic

Unlimited

Generous bandwidth allowance for uploading/downloading large simulation files without limits or overage fees.

Operating System

Windows 11

Pre-installed and ready to use. Compatible with ANSYS, OpenFOAM, and other CFD software.

About This Server

SC70 — High-Clock 8-Core CFD Node with Fast NVMe for Accessible ANSYS Fluent Solves

The SC70 node offers fast per-core performance for ANSYS Fluent in a compact, accessible package, pairing an 8-core Intel® Core™ i9-9900K (up to 5.0 GHz) with 64 GB of RAM and 2 TB of fast NVMe storage. With high clock speeds and quick NVMe I/O, it's well suited to small-to-moderate cases where per-core speed and responsive storage matter more than a high core count. When you want a fast, accessible node for everyday CFD, SC70 is the choice.

It is the high-clock, compact entry tier in our range: strong single-thread speed, a sensible 64 GB memory budget, and fast NVMe storage — with a clear path up to higher-core, higher-memory, and GPU nodes as your needs grow.

Storage

2 × 1 TB NVMe SSD

SC70 uses a Core i9-9900K: 8 cores reaching up to 5.0 GHz for strong per-core speed. Behind it, 64 GB of RAM holds small-to-moderate meshes, and two 1 TB NVMe SSDs deliver fast read/write for case loading, data writes, and autosaves.

What's included with SC70

Every SC70 rental comes with extras to help you get the most from it:

  • A comprehensive CFD course, free — a full training course to sharpen your simulation skills, included at no extra cost.

  • One month of Claude AI Premium — AI assistance to support your engineering, scripting, and problem-solving.

  • One hour of free CFD consultation — direct time with our CFD engineers to help set up, troubleshoot, or optimize your case.

These come standard with the node — practical support alongside the compute.

What this node is built for

SC70 is the high-clock, compact entry tier in our range. It suits:

  • Small-to-moderate meshes solved quickly — high clock speeds drive fast per-core convergence.

  • Learning and everyday CFD — an accessible node for tutorials, prototyping, and routine work.

  • Cases that favor clock over core count — smaller models that don't scale to many cores.

  • I/O-responsive workflows — fast NVMe keeps case loading and data writes quick.

With 8 cores at up to 5.0 GHz, Fluent partitions your mesh across them for a solid per-core speed-up on small-to-moderate cases, while fast NVMe keeps data flowing.

Cores, clock, and memory: choosing SC70

SC70's headline is clock speed on a compact core count. In CFD, cores and clock determine how fast a case solves, while memory sets the largest mesh you can run — roughly 1 GB of RAM per million cells for a typical steady, single-phase case. With 64 GB and 8 fast cores, SC70 is matched to small-to-moderate cases solved quickly.

  • Need more cores at high clocks? Step up to SC57 (16-core, 5.7 GHz, 128 GB).

  • Need more memory? See SC72 (128 GB) or SC56 (1 TB high-memory).

  • Need a high core count? See SC58 (48-core EPYC), SC62 (48-core dual Xeon), or SC63 (96-core quad Xeon).

  • Want GPU acceleration? Our GPU tiers (GP1, GP2) run Fluent's native GPU solver.

Tell us your cell count and physics, and we'll match you to the tier that fits.

Fast NVMe storage

The two 1 TB NVMe SSDs give you 2 TB of high-speed storage — and NVMe delivers markedly faster read/write than SATA or HDD. Loading geometries and case files, writing solution data, and handling autosaves all run quickly, so a fast solve is never held up by slow disk I/O. The speed is especially welcome on a fast-clock node, keeping storage from becoming the bottleneck.

How parallel solving works on this node

When you run Fluent in parallel, the solver partitions your mesh across all 8 cores (using algorithms such as METIS), each core solving its share of cells and exchanging boundary data each iteration via MPI. On a single node, that communication runs through fast on-chip channels rather than a network, keeping parallel overhead low. For small-to-moderate cases that fit in 64 GB, those 8 high-clocked cores deliver a solid speed-up.

For accessible, fast-clock CFD on small-to-moderate cases, SC70 gives you high per-core speed and fast NVMe storage — plus a free course, a month of Claude AI Premium, and a consultation hour — with an easy step up when your meshes grow.

How it works — you're in full control

SC70 is yours to drive directly. You connect to the node over a secure remote desktop connection and run everything yourself, exactly as you would on a local workstation:

  1. Connect via remote desktop — you get full remote access to the SC70 node.

  2. Set up your simulation — load your geometry and case, configure your solver settings, and run ANSYS Fluent with all 8 cores at your command.

  3. Run and monitor in real time — start, pause, adjust, and watch the solution as it progresses, with complete control throughout.

  4. Keep your results — post-process on the node or download your solution and data files whenever you're ready.

You have full authority over the node for the duration of your rental: we provide the hardware and the support, and you run the simulations your way.

Frequently asked questions

Who is SC70 for?
Anyone who wants a fast, accessible node for small-to-moderate CFD cases — work that benefits from high clock speed and quick NVMe storage more than from a high core count.

How large a mesh can it handle?
With 64 GB of RAM, plan for small-to-moderate meshes — into the low tens of millions of cells for simpler steady single-phase cases, fewer for transient or multiphase physics (about 1 GB of RAM per million cells is a good starting estimate). Send us your case for a precise answer.

Why choose SC70 over a higher-core node?
SC70's strength is per-core speed on a compact, cost-effective node. For smaller cases that don't scale to many cores, high clocks deliver quick turnaround. As your cases grow, higher-core or higher-memory nodes take over.

Is my data kept confidential?
Yes. Your geometry, case files, and results stay private to you, treated as strictly confidential — and because you run everything yourself over remote desktop, your work stays under your control throughout.
