The high end Intel CPUs like Xeon Phis that have enough compute muscle to get anywhere near NVidia GPU perf for deep learning are far too expensive to be able to replace them

NVidia has both aspects secured very well. In fact, NVidia is already a prominent part in supplying components for the 3rd place in the Top500, Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Titan system, which mixes up AMD Opterons with NVIdia k20x GPUs.
