Overall, the ODROID-X ARM Linux performance is very impressive. The quad-core ODROID-X development board with the Samsung Exynos 4412 quad-core ARM Cortex-A9 1.4GHz only costs $129 USD and its performance was faster than the NVIDIA Tegra 3 Cardhu quad-core when running the latest Linux 4 Tegra release while the Samsung board had Linaro 12.08. Stay tuned for more ODROID-X Linux benchmarking.
