This is a newly launch by ASUS named Tinker Board a Raspberry like SBC computer in a powerful ultra-small form factor that offers a performance while leveraging outstanding mechanical compatibility. The Tinker Board uses powerful and modern QUAD-CORE ARM based process, (ROCKCHIP RK3288) that offers significantly improved performance vs other popular SBC boards, it has 2GB of LP DDR3 dual channel memory. Also equipped with an SDIO 3.0 interface that offers significantly faster read and write speeds to expandable micro SD cards for Operating System application storage.
GPU and Functionality: Featuring a powerful energy efficient design that support next generation graphics and GPU compute API that powered by ARM-Base MALI T764 GPU, the board GPU and fixed function processor allow for a wide range uses, including high-quality media playback. Tinker Board & Raspberry Pi are the same design of SBC (Single Board Computer) a complete computer built on a single circuit board with microprocessor, memory, IO, LAN, and other features. Compare to Raspberry Pi 3, Tinker board has twice performance of the Raspberry Pi 3, which is using ROCKCHIP RK3388SOC QUADCORE 1.8GHz ARM Cortex-A17 CPU.
