Guys and Girls , Ive reached a good offer for a model of INTEL Xeon Phi 31S1P. They've launched a promotional offer here :

I'm considering buying couple of pcs. What is your opinion of it...

Interesting offer, but this is a passively cooled card and you will have to have a server type case that provides the correct airflow. Seems that Intel wants to get rid of some hardware stock that no one wants to buy Wink  Also it seems they have already sold off all cards?

Your mainboard needs to be able to map 8 GB of 64 bit PCIe address space correctly. Lots of consumer mainboards might not be able to do this, as consumer graphics cards typically map a small address window (e.g. 256 MB) into 32 bit address space.

There is no crypto mining software available for these cards. If you are able to program, you might still be able to pull off something interesting with these cards. We could team up, as I have an Intel SC3120A card that is currently unused.
