Yes it does. See my 'Radxa ROCK Pi N10 Works' email. > Its specs look equivalent > with the RK3399's but it has 8GB RAM. I was excited about this board too but note that only 4GB of the ram is available to the CPU. The other 4GB is reserved for the NPU. > If a hardware donation is of use let me know. > > https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/search?dir=desc&q=rk3399pro&sort=multicore_score > > Some RK3399Pro SBC refs and more at bottom [1]: > * https://wiki.radxa.com/RockpiN10 > * Looks: https://youtu.be/6X7f3pTWlOwt=172 > * > https://www.seeedstudio.com/ROCK-PI-N10-Model-C-RK3399Pro-8GB-LPDDR3-64GB-eMMC-p-4381.html > * > https://shop.maker-store.de/single-board-computer/boards/einzelne-boards/2778/rock-pi-n10-8gb/64gb-rockchip-rk3399- > pro > > RK3399Pro is the successor of the RK3399, essentially the same but > supports 8GB RAM and bundles some NPU which OpenBSD of course not will > support.
