Looks like Larrabee finally got some branding today, but the more interesting tidbit from the articles is the fact that there's already a system with it in the recently released June 2012 TOP500 list. 'Discovery' places at 150, supposedly with 236 Xeon E5-2670 and 118 Xeon Phi producing an rmax of 118.6 TFlops at 100.8 kW (no good way to link it directly as the system page doesn't have the TFlops figures.) Of course there are some slight peculiarities with the entry, namely if the 9800 core count was accurate then each Xeon Phi would have roughly 67.05 cores - I'm guessing the 9800 core figure is a ballpark figure as Intel apparently doesn't want to reveal actual core counts yet.
Other interesting observations are that 118.6 TFlops for 100.8 kW puts it in the same ballpark as systems with the same E5-2670 and Tesla M2090 cards get for perforance per watt (1.17 TFlops/kW vs around 1.05 TFlops/kW for the systems with Tesla.) As well, we can derive the theoretical TFlops per Xeon Phi as the E5-2670 is a known ~166 GFlops per CPU - (180990 GFlops - 166 GFlops * 236) / 118 = 1201.8 GFlops per Xeon Phi. That's the figure that you can compare to the theoretical 665 GFLops of a Tesla M2090 or 1024 GFlops of a FirePro W9000. We can also estimate the rmax contribution for each Xeon Phi thanks to a number of entries that are just straight E5-2670 - each E5-2670 gets around 155 GFlops, so (118600 GFlops - 155 GFlops * 236) / 118 = 695 GFlops per Xeon Phi. While this doesn't seem that impressive, keep in mind that the rmax of a Tesla M2090 is roughly 315 GFlops.
