Intel presents Xeon Phi, coprocessors for computing.
-
With a typical graphics card format, with a PCI-E connector, the Xeon Phi is the solution proposed by Intel to compete in the coprocessor market for servers, with its own "Many Integrated Core" (MIC) architecture. There will be two models initially, the Xeon Phi 5110P and the Intel Xeon Phi 3100, with a power of 1 TeraFLOP in double precision, the first of which has 8 GB of RAM, is capable of passive cooling, a characteristic that allows saving noise and consumption, while the second has 6 GB of RAM and needs a fan for ventilation.

It reminds me of the Pentium II era Intel Pentium II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia :eoh: what times those were The best part is that AMD ended up doing the same :ugly: I had a Pentium II at 400 :ugly: wow how it lagged with the 3dfx Monster II graphics card with 8 megs. Back then I played almost everything at 800*600. Quake at that resolution was impressive and the light effects left you speechless :llorar: Jordiqui sorry for the off topic :mad: but I've been very restless lately and I've banned myself in this thread :osvaisacagar: -

In reality it's a very different concept. The Slot 1 of the Pentium 2 and 3 and the Slot A of the Athlon were the bus through which the CPU connected to the motherboard. Here they are talking about connecting a processing system that works in parallel with the CPU using the PCI Express bus. It could be said that these processing systems are Intel's answer to CUDA (which has been very effective in supercomputing tasks). That is, their function is not to govern the machine they are connected to.
