4 cores, SMT4.  There's an 8-core available for $190 more, and AFAIK
there are plans to start offering an 18-core server chip very shortly.

These are the OpenPOWER machines, so there is hardware virtualization
support (including I/O passthrough) that works well with kvm and QEMU.
I haven't really heard anything referred to as "LPAR" on these newer
POWER8/POWER9 machines outside of legacy documents.
