Seeed Studio reComputer RK3588
The reComputer RK3588 is Seeed Studio’s enclosed RK3588 edge AI box. It uses the same chassis as the reComputer RK3576 and adds more:
- 2.5 GbE instead of Gigabit Ethernet
- four USB 3.0 ports
- a second HDMI output and an HDMI input
- a second M.2 slot with PCIe 3.0 x4
It ships with Armbian and Seeed’s reComputer AI Lab. The standard SKUs are the RK3588-30 (8 GB) and RK3588-40 (16 GB), and 32 GB is available to order. It launched in May 2026 from $199, and pre-orders shipped from 30 May 2026.
