Intel® Xeon Phi™ Coprocessor 5110P

Highly parallel processing to power your breakthrough innovations

Highly parallel processing to power your breakthrough innovations

Power your breakthrough innovations with the highly parallel processing of the Intel® Xeon Phi™ coprocessor.  We’ve packed up to a teraFLOPS of double precision peak performance into every chip—the highest parallel performance per watt of any Intel® Xeon® processor.1,2,3,4  Now you can think “reuse” rather than “recode” with x86 compatibility.  Languages, tools, and applications run smoothly across the full spectrum of Intel® Xeon® processor family-based platforms. Plus, discover the flexibility of a coprocessor that can also host an operating system.

With the launch of the Intel® Xeon Phi™ coprocessor 5110P, extracting extreme performance from highly parallel applications just got a lot easier. Part of the Intel® Xeon Phi™ product family, the 5110P is based on Intel® Many Integrated Core Architecture (Intel® MIC Architecture) and complements the industry‐leading performance and energy efficiency of the Intel® Xeon™ processor E5 family.

The Intel® Xeon Phi™ coprocessor—illustrious performance per watt, built to perform brilliantly on your greatest challenges. The only thing more amazing than the Intel® Xeon Phi™ coprocessor is what your research will do with it. 

Looking to find out if the Intel® Xeon Phi™ coprocessor is right for your applications?  The following article will walk you through a simple process to quickly answer that question, and allow you to find out more about highly-parallel programming, vectorization, and memory bandwidth considerations: Is the Intel® Xeon Phi™ coprocessor right for me?

Ease of programming

Intel® architecture

Applications can support both Intel® Xeon® processors and Intel® Xeon Phi™ coprocessors which use common languages, models, and tools, including:

  • Familiar and standard development tools—no need for learning new languages or tools
  • Intel tools like Intel® Cluster Studio XE, as well as many tools from other vendors
  • Popular approaches such as Message Passing Interface, OpenMP, Fortran’s DO CONCURRENT*, Intel® Threading Building Blocks (Intel® TBB) , and Intel® Cilk™ Plus

1. Software and workloads used in performance tests may have been optimized for performance only on Intel microprocessors. Performance tests, such as SYSmark and MobileMark, are measured using specific computer systems, components, software, operations, and functions. Any change to any of those factors may cause the results to vary. You should consult other information and performance tests to assist you in fully evaluating your contemplated purchases, including the performance of that product when combined with other products. For more information, go to www.intel.com/performance.
