Cixert Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 (edited) I have read a few about supercomputers created with PCIe cards Xeon Phi. It appears to be the fastest in the world and to have up to 72 cores. The process works with a PCIe card that contains a co-processor and requires Intel Manycore Platform Software Stack (MPSS). Are there versions for Windows XP? Don't need any additional drivers? I also read that specifically compatible motherboards are required. Meeting these requirements, I understand that Xeon Phi 72x5 Product Family (14 nm) Knights Mill 2017 version could be installed. But what would it do? Can it be applied to all programs or only a few designed for Xeon Phi? Edited July 9, 2020 by Cixert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
win32 Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) MPSS is only compatible with Windows 7 and above. Its driver is only available for x64 systems: https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/intel-manycore-platform-software-stack-mpss.html?wapkw=mpss#about https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/hpc/Intel-Xeon-Phi-with-Windows-510/ You cannot run Windows applications natively on the Phi, as the Phi itself runs on an embedded Linux.
