Reasons to consider the
Intel Xeon Phi 7120P

Report a correction
More threads 244 vs 16 228 more threads
Much more l2 cache 30.5 MB vs 16 MB More than 90% more l2 cache; more data can be stored in the l2 cache for quick access later
Supports more CPUs in SMP configuration 8 vs 4 Twice as many CPUs in SMP configuration
Newer manufacturing process 22 nm vs 32 nm A newer manufacturing process allows for a more powerful, yet cooler running processor
Newer Jun, 2013 vs Nov, 2012 Release date 7 months later
