The chipmaker has also partnered with Qualcomm to grab a piece of the emerging AI inferencing market.
Ampere Computing has announced plans for a faster, more efficient 256-core server processor to help address soaring data center power demands. The startup chipmaker is also building a new joint solution that combines Ampere's Arm-based CPUs with Qualcomm's AI inferencing chip.
Ampere executives today (May 16) said its forthcoming 256-core AmpereOne chip - which will be available next year - will deliver 40% better performance than any CPU on the market today while using the same amount of power as its 192-core AmpereOne chip that was released last year.
