Rockchip RK3288 vs RK3188 Performance Comparison January 10th, 2014 [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien]
We were expecting some new processors at CES 2014, but this CES turned out to be mostly disappointing, and the vast majority of reporters present at the conference, do not seem interested in covering Chinese SoC vendors. Some information however surfaced on several foreign languages blogs and news sites about Rockchip RK3288. First, RK3288 is indeed based on ARM Cortex A12 as initially announced, and not some mysterious ARM Cortex A17 cores, but somebody at Rockchip likely made an embarrassing mistake, and Edward Weinert reported it was corrected at Rockchip booth with pieces of paper as shown below. [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir cette image]So Rockchip RK3288 has four of these Cortex A12 core, a 4L2K H.265 / HEVC video decoder, and an high-end Mali T764 T624 GPU supporting OpenGL ES3.0 and OpenCL 1.1 that vastly outperforms Mali-400 MP4 found in RK3188, and is even significantly faster than Adreno 330 GPU found in Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 SoC in Kindle Fire HDX. [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir cette image]The first column is probably AMLogic M802 with Mali-450MP6. If you upgrade from RK3188 to RK3288, you’ll get 4 to nearly 6 times more 3D graphics performance based on GFXBench benchmarks. The company did not include the CPU performance, as Snapdragon 800 will clearly have an edge in this area. [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir cette image]The maximum frequency for RK3188 is 1.6GHz (despite being told it would go up to 1.8 GHz at launch), whereas RK3288 can be clocked up to 1.8 GHz, and moving from Cortex A9 to Cortex A12 improves performance from 2.5 DMIPS/Mhz to 3.3 DMIPS/MHz, meaning RK3288 is nearly 50% faster, in theory, compared to RK3188 when it comes to CPU performance. We’ll have to get more benchmark results to get a complete picture of the performance, but we already know CPU performance should be pretty decent, and GPU performance be top of the class. RK3288 is said to cost about $40 for now, with the price probably coming down to $35 in the second quarter. One of the first devices with RK3288 SoC will be allegedly be Yuandao M12 tablet.

Belle évolution, surtout côté GPU, et voilà qui donne une sacrée claque à MTK et son MT6592 à peine sorti. J'espère que les fabricants de consoles ne vont pas gaspiller cette puissance dans des écrans à la résolution inutilement démesurée comme ça devient la mode sur les smartphones et les tablettes.

+1 l'autonomie devient primordiale dans cette soit disant course à l'armement... Pour avoir un smartphone (iPhone, android...) qui tienne une journée complète en utilisation intensive (push, navigation, vidéo), il est devenu quasi obligatoire d'ajouter une batterie externe... Seules les tablettes s'en sortent mieux avec des batteries bien plus conséquentes.

Malgré tout, quand on a eu l'occasion de passer un peu de temps sur du 2k, il semblerait qu'il devienne très très difficile de retourner sur des résolutions moindre.
Perso, sur du 5 pouce, entre du 720p et du 1080p je ne vois pas de grosses différences, peut être que ce n'est pas la même chose sur des écrans plus grand ? il est vrai qu'une tablette open source 7 pouces en 2k je veux bien essayer !

Rockchip RK3288 beats everyone to Cortex-A12, Mali-T760, and H.265 | SemiAccurate - [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien]
It looks like Rockchip is about to fire a warning shot across bow of the top-tier of ARM SoC vendors with their new RK3288. This chip is not just the first A7 device to hit the market, or the first Mali-T76x bearing SoC, it also has one really unique and useful feature.
Originally the Rockchip RK3288 was supposed to sport an ARM Coretex-A17 core, the one that was renamed the A12 a bit ago. Unfortunately that change happened after the marketing materials for the RK3288 were printed up as you can see below. On the up side that is about the only thing SemiAccurate could find even remotely negative about this upcoming SoC.
You may notice that the sign at the CES Rockchip booth says, “is Coming!” something our sources say will happen at MWC. That means about 3-4 weeks until the debut of the first ARM Coretex-A12 part and it will be from Rockchip. The A12 should erase a lot of the negative sentiment surrounding the A15 and be the price/performance leader in the high-end phone space this year.
Possibly more important is another likely first, the upcoming Mali-T760 GPU sporting all the latest mobile goodies is on board. Which version of that line? The spec sheets say that it is a quad-core MaliT76x which from our understanding of the ARM naming system means it will be called anything but the ARM Mali-T764 that you would expect. SIGH. In any case The RK3288 should have booth a lot of GPU power and a complete feature set too, both together are a rarity in the market.
The last bit is probably the most important one, a full hardware H.265 decoder. While there are a few hardware H.265 implementations out there for pure video work, Rockchip looks to have another first in bringing H.265 to tablets and phones. Full 4K video on your tablet in hardware is no easy task and while others are just discussing the possibility, Rockchip is going to deliver it in single digit weeks.
So with the release of the RK3288 later this month, Rockchip is putting the big guys on notice. They will not only be first with the new ARM CPU cores and GPUs, they will be the only player SemiAccurate knows of with a full hardware H.265 implementation. If the early rumors SemiAccurate moles are whispering in the background are true, the RK3288 is not only going to be a damn fast part, it will be a decently priced damn fast part with one pretty amazing and unique video decoder. Keep an eye on the RK3288, everyone is saying Rockchip did a great job with it.

Manque quand même un élément de taille ... C'est bien de dire qu'on a la plus grosse, mais il manque quand même la consommation de ce CPU et sa gestion de l'énergie. Inutile de faire un truc qui carbure avec 200W en entrée !
J'ai un peu cherché sur le net, ce que j'ai trouvé dit juste que ca consomme moins (qu'un A9 ???), mais bizarrement aucun chiffre, aucun graph de comparaison

MINIX NEO X9 RK3288 Quad Core Tv Box on Geekbuying
February 27, 2014 Mike What's New
Minix has been silent for too many months without blast new product off. Today is 2014.02.27, now it is a warm afternoon in ShenZhen, i sit in the work office of Geekbuying,wondering what will be next generation milestone product and what the name would it be.At this time 2 words comes into my mind,one of them is X9 while the other is RK3288. After selling MINIX product for so many times, i realize that MINIX loves odd numbers instead of even numbers which is a BIG guess from myself.So i think the next generation product will be named MINIX NEO X9. Then, why RK3288 ? This is a stupid question as MINIX will 200% use Rockchip chips, they two like brothers, one can not live without the other, fighting with each other everyday but love each other more and more. RK3188 is a super great chip but it will be too old and powerless for the next generation (leave alone rk3188t, it is a tragedy). The latest chip from ROCKCHIP will be RK3288,everyone knows this after CES 2014. What is the performance of RK3288 ? you can google it then you will find a lot of compare with rk3188 and other cortext A9 chips. it would not be so hard to find out how powerful it is . As the biggest partner of MINIX, we geekbuying will not say this news is released from MINIX, they do not anounce such news before new product is well produced and updated. BUT,guys, we geekbuying will sell the first piece MINIX NEO X9 out, we will got the first 500 pieces or 1000 pieces MINIX NEO X9 in the world before all the other Chinese website.This happend while MINIX X5 and MINIX x7 were released and it will happen again on MINIX NEO X9. I will not tell you the stock date is within 2 months because i am not sure about this , seriously, i trust and believe that MINIX will not let us down.

The latest Rockchips R3288 processor with integrated 4G LTE network support is rumoured to make it’s first appearance in tablets from April this year.
Rockchips are quite proud of the RK3288, and tablet fans are excited as this is this is one of the first quad-core Cortex A12 SoC device to to on the market. The processor also happens to have a rather potent quad-core MaliT76X GPU, giving enough graphics performance for full H.265 decoding meaning 4K video will soon be a reality on your tablets.
4G LTE is also going to be supported by the new SoC making up for quite a capable processor. Now all that needs to be seen is which tablets are going to be getting the processor first and will this mean the first 2K, 4K tablet displays are also going to be appearing in the coming weeks?

Rockchip’s new RK3288 processor is a quad-core ARM Cortex-A17 processor with ARM Mali-760 graphics. It’s the most powerful processor from the Chinese chip maker to date, although at the rate Rockchip releases new processors that probably won’t be true for long. Anyway, the first RK3288-powered tablets started appearing a few weeks ago. Now the first Android TV boxes sporting the chips are starting to show up. [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir cette image] Vendors are starting to take orders for set-top-boxes and TV sticks at Chinese business-to-business marketplace Alibaba. If you don’t want to order 500 units, you’ll probably have to wait a little longer to get your hands on one of these little guys. Android TV Mini PC RK3288 This TV stick measures 4.3″ x 1.6″ x 0.5″ and looks a bit like a big USB flash drive. But while there’s a USB port on one end, there’s an HDMI connector on the other. Plug the stick into your TV or monitor and you can use it to run Android 4.4 KitKat on a big screen. The device features Rockchip’s 28nm ARM Cortex-A17 processor, 2GB of RAM, and 8GB of built-in storage. There’s a microSD card slot which supports up to 32GB of additional storage, a micro USB port for power, and 2 USB 2.0 host ports. It supports 802.11ac WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0, and HDMI 1.4A. Android TV Mini PC RK3288 This model is a bit bigger and looks more like a WiFi router than a flash drive. It measures 5.6″ x 4.3″ x 0.8″ and has room for a few more features including an external WiFi antenna and an Ethernet jack. [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir cette image] Other specs are pretty much the same as those for the smaller model, including 2GB of RAM, 8GB of storage, WiFi, Bluetooth, and a microSD card slot. Both product descriptions mention support for 8K video input and 4K video output and support for H.265 video. via CNX Software

Premiers benchmarks Rockchip RK3288 with Mali-T760 GPU shows up on GFX Benchmark | ARCTABLET NEWS - [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien]
Rockchip RK3288 processor is not far away and the first Pipo tablets are expected to ship with it before end of this month. The RK3288 is based on the ARM Cortex A17 architecture and it’s a quad core setup with speeds up to 1.8 GHz. As a GPU we have the Mali T760 graphics chip which is scalable up to 16 cores, with H.265 hardware decoding and also support for 4K x 2K resolution. On GFX Benchmark, we were able to find benchmark results that look like they are coming from RK3288 developers platfrom.
Comparing the RK3288 platform (up to 1,6Ghz, 1280×800 and 2048×1536 resolutions, 2GB RAM) with Snapdragon 800 platfrom from Oppo Find 7 (2.3Ghz, 1920×1080 resolution, 2GB RAM). Because of the big scatter in RK3288 results, only the highest results are compared:
[Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir cette image]We can see that in a very demanding Manhattan test with OpenGL ES 3.0-specific complex lighting, particles, and deferred shading, RK3288 is a winner over the Snapdragon 800. While the high-level results are better on the RK3288, Snapdragon 800 is clearly a winner when it comes to low-level tests, probably because of the better CPU. However, what about the improvement over the RK3188? Here is the comparison table with RK3188(Archos 101XS2 device with 1.6 Ghz, 1280×800 resolution and 2GB of RAM):
In the high-level T-Rex test we can see a huge improvement of a few hundred percent, while the results for the low-level tests are not much different. Overall, we can conclude that the RK3288 will bring a big 3D graphics improvement over the RK3188 and will be able to compete with high-end Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 CPU. However, when it comes to raw CPU power, the Snapdragon 800 still has an edge in that area.

RK3288 powered Pipo lineup of tablets coming soon RK3288 powered Pipo lineup of tablets coming soon - Gizchina.com | Gizchina.com - [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien]
Pipo has been among the fastest rising Chinese tablet manufacturers, ever since the company hit it off with dual-core RK3066 tablets in 2012 for 2014 a new range of RK3288 tablets to launch.
Sources reveal that the company is now looking forward to releasing a slew of tablets powered Rockchip’s latest quad-core solution, the Rockchip RK3288. The RK3288 series succeeds the hugely popular RK3188 lineup of chipsets, and is expected to bring improvements in all aspects. The CPU now operates at a 1.8GHz frequency with 4 Cortex A17 cores working in tandem. Graphics are provided by the ARM Mali T-760 chip, which again promises a huge jump in performance. Pipo will be showcasing multiple devices with the usual screen sizes for tablets in 8.9 inches, 9.7 inches and 10.1 inches. It isn’t very clear at the moment, but the tablets will have resolutions higher than or equal to 1920 x 1080p at least, with some possibly going up to 2560 x 1600p. What’s more, the powerful GPU on the RK3288 will even allow you to playback 4K video! We’ll know more about these power-packed tablets during the Hong Kong Electronics Fair, which is scheduled to take place next month.

De ce que j'ai suivi Rockchip allait annoncer sont tout nouveau 3288 en cortex a12 quand arm à sorti son a17 qui consomme autant qu'un a12 en gros et plus performant qu'un a15 ( mtk6595 face au rockchip )
Forcément le rockchip fait moins performant face à ça et essaye de faire croire sur certainsturcs que c'est un a17
Ça se voit sut mon article dessus ou t'as la pancarte en a12 et le bench en a17 x)

The Rikomagic MK902 MiniPC, a quad-core set top box equipped with a 5 MPixels camera (under review here) should soon get updated with latest Rockchip RK3288 processor. The MK902II is expected next month, price has not yet been set. From the product release information:
Citation :
The MK902II is the latest generation Mini PC from Rikomagic, it’s faster then any of our previous Android Mini PC’s thanks to the state of the art RK3288 quad core A17 processor. Up until now (in fact the last 2 years) Mini PC’s have used Cortex A9 cores in their multi core processors. Now we can offer performance thats quite literally “Game Changing” by bringing speed increases of over 3 times our current fastest mini PCs (the MK802IV and MK902)… and they were fast!
Rockchip RK3288 Quad Core ARM Cortex-A17，up to 1.8GHZ GPU – Mali-T764 3D GPU (OpenGL ES 1.1/2.0 /3.0,and OpenCL 1.1)
