Three new Mali cores from ARM

ARM has produced three new Mali graphics cores in its T600 series.

The cores can be configured with between one and eight processors. The T624 and T628 versions are for phones and TVs; the T678 is for tablets and high-end TVs.

The cores use ARM’s Adaptive Scalable Texture Compression (ASTC) technique.

The cores claim a 50% performance improvement over previous cores but no performance metrics are announced.
