      @oldgreg Thanks. You need to be a bit careful with those pages comparing boards - I submitted 3 corrections (1x for SOPine, 2x for RockPro64) in the past due to incorrect info.
      Then there is question of Linux support for the SOC - which is a whole different story 🙂 Raw power doesn't matter as much as solid sw support; as things stand it will be a few months before H6 graphics are usable.

        Just a heads up to those who wish to help test and offer feedback on here.
        The RockPro64 image has been labeled release because 1) it tests very well - big performance improvements over beta in Dreamcast, PSP and Nintendo 64 (probably best performance on ARM); 2) We've not had any major complaints, except for some PCIe incompatibility of external NVMe SSDs and other hardware, from many people who tested.
        The Rock64 image stays in Beta due to some lingering issues and some missing features (e.g. setting resolution from recalbox config for RA cores, reicast, Mupen and ppsspp) - nothing major.

              hello,

              r64 look good, I want to try it and help you for the beta

              I'm looking for buy it with 4GB

              just 1 question about this beta, the GPIO works? if I put the rock64 in retroflag case, the script for on off button works?

                @diamantis42 I know pine64 is releasing its own case, which will surely get support first. But, if retroflag cases aren’t being supported at this moment (haven’t tested yet to be honest), support will come for it eventually.

                If your question was answered, please mark it as solved: Topic Tools -> Ask a question + Topic Tools -> Mark as Solved

                  Hey @diamantis42, I think that @paradadf is pretty spot-on in his response. I imagine, however, that support for the retroflag cases woulnd't be much of an issue - just a case of implementing the script they require in the the build.

                    I looking for it

                    I think rpi.gpio python library is not the same

                    But I found this
                    https://github.com/Leapo/Rock64-R64.GPIO

                    And the script in recalbox are configure in bcm

                    The rock64 have same board gpio but not in bcm mode

                      @diamantis42 I also think that mrfixi2001 baked in that work from Leapo into his image.

                        Sorry for dragging up an old post, but is there a port for the Pine A64+ ?
                        I have the Kickstarter version of the Pine64 board with 2GB of ram.
                        Thanks,
                        Alan
