    I was thinking about adding a Knights Crossing SC7240P Xeon Phi co-processor card to an eGPU enclosure for my XPS 9560. Does anyone know if this would work? It's either that or a Titan V, and I would much prefer the Xeon, although I'm not 100% sure if will work. Anyone have any experience on this?

    Wouldn't it just be easier to get a more powerful laptop, desktop, or NVME eGPU?
