Rockchip RK3572 EVB
Rockchip’s RK3572 evaluation board was shown in public for the first time at Embedded World 2026, about a month after it was built. SBCwiki ran Geekbench 6 on it at the show. It ran pre-release software, and it reported a hexa-core CPU, while production RK3572 silicon is octa-core. It is not sold. It is listed here because the Rankings include its scores.
