What I'm really interested to know is how this looks from a power-performance perspective. An Arria 10 can draw 20-40 watts (I'm not sure that 90w is really realistic), and the TDP for the Xeon is 165W. When I saw the discussion about this in the past with people who work at Intel the discussion wasn't 165+90 = 225TDP. It was actually "Oh so you want to use the FPGA, better turn off 6 of those Xeon cores! That could be a real problem for getting performance out of these systems.
