Tilera's 36 core CPU

Tilera heeft een nieuwe CPU ontwikkelt die 36 cores kan ondersteunen, dit is niet de grootste aantal cores die ze gemaakt hebben aangezien Tilera vorig jaar een 64 Core had geintroduceert.

Intel of AMD hoeft niets te vrezen, Tilera richt zich niet op de Thuisgebruikers of server als doelgroep.

Hier staat de orginele tekst in het engels van MaximumPC:
[quote]Holy high core-count Batman, just imagine how many Chrome tabs you could have open with a 36-core Nehalem! But before you get too excited, this isn't some secret project Intel has been working on. The feat comes courtesy of Tilera, a small start-up from 2004 and self-proclaimed "industry leader in highly scalable multi-core embedded processor design." And with a 36-core chip, who's to argue?

This isn't even Tilera's highest cored processor, as the company introduced a 64-core CPU last year. This time around, the scaled down TilePro36 is being marketed as a midrange part suitable for devices like high-end video conferencing, according to Bob Doud, Tilera's director of marketing.

Intel and AMD needn't be worried though, as the Tilera doesn't target servers and home PCs, as the architecture would get summarily thumped by today's fastest chips. But for its targeted applications, the tiled RISC processing core puts out a bit of pep when configured in a distributed network, and the new 36-core version only sips between 10 to 16 watts.
