What the RK3588 Is
The RK3588 is a Rockchip system-on-chip (SoC) for ARM-based computers, edge devices and AIoT products. It combines four Cortex-A76 cores running up to 2.4 GHz with four Cortex-A55 cores running up to 1.8 GHz. The chip includes a 6 TOPS NPU with three cores, a Mali-G610 MP4 GPU, 8K@60 video decode, PCIe 3.0 x4, dual HDMI 2.1 outputs, an HDMI input, SATA 3.0 and dual Gigabit Ethernet MACs. It is built on an 8 nm process and supports Linux and Android.
