Then again, as Scole has earlier said, you need a 2GB model for the quad RK3288 to be effective, so we'd rather wait for a 4GB model of the octa-core RK3368. We should stay away from 1GB models of the RK3368, that's for sure...
There was a bloke some 30 miles away that offered his 1GB RK3368 for some 85 euro's -we now know why[/url]....and another that wanted to get rid of his -2GB- RK3288 for €40,00...prices sure are dropping! BTW: the 2GB RAM/16GB Flash model of the RK3368 does a little over 90 Euros at Banggood at the moment!
A comparison between the various ARM cores to put the dissapointing (?) performance of the A53 in perspective (after all, the 64-bit A53 should be compared to the 32-bit A7 , both being LITTLE cores that should be combined with big A15/17 or big A57/72 cores)
