Hi Guys,

a pretty powerful board from Pine64 is coming March 2018:

http://opensource.rock-chips.com/wiki_RK3399

The RockPro64 is the more powerful out of the two boards debuting in Q1 2018. It is based on the RK3399 hexa-core SOC (up to 4GB) consisting of a dual-core ARM Cortex-A72 and a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53. The GPU on the SOC is a quad-core Mali-T860MP4 with support for OpenGL ES1.1/2.0/3.0 and OpenCL1.2. Its one powerful board, so to keep the thermals at bay there are mounting holes for a heatsink and a header for a fan on the PCB. For those interested in the full feature set of the SOC you can read

What do you think?

I believe ODroid is putting something out with the same CPU/GPU chipset. Should be good!

Let see, Pine64 is pushing hard, more competition means better hardware for all of us! However there is not any official info about XU5 yet…

Those are basically the same boards with almost the same features, probably the sata support on the Odroid just makes it a true little computer! Cool! :sunglasses:
