Performance Summary

The HardKernel ODROID N2+ is an ARM single board computer built around the Amlogic S922X, pairing 6 CPU cores with 2GB of RAM in this configuration. In our testing it reached 9,655 MIPS in multi-core 7-Zip compression. Raw floating point throughput came in at 20.30 GFLOPS in Linpack.

Multiple benchmark runs available. Perfect for seeing how different OS versions, kernels, and carrier boards may impact performance numbers. For example, Raspberry Pi OS vs Ubuntu on the Raspberry Pi 5, or official vs third-party carrier boards for your CM5.
