These are meant to be many small weak cores, so as much as possible will likely have been removed from its instruction set. Full SSE support is likely not included, although some pieces of it might be.
These many core CPUs could possibly be handy in a web/cloud setting where a lot of NoSQL databases just need something that can filter through an index, nothing that fancy. Having 50 - 100 of these could possibly be a boon. It just depends on how well each core really performs.
