This is the processor and GPU pairing behind the performance gains in this RockTek G2 Next review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is 4GB of LPDDR4 RAM and 64GB of eMMC 5.1 storage. You can of course increase the storage with a micro SD card or USB drives. For communications there is Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 for wireless, and RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet for wired connections. That makes it a dependable Wi-Fi 6 streaming box whether you connect wirelessly or by cable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We tested the power usage during our review. On standby we saw 0.8W, around 1.5W idle on the Home screen, watching a film used 3W, and full load reached 3.6W. The <a href=\"https:\/\/droix.net\/product\/rocktek-g2-next\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RockTek G2 Next<\/a> is passively cooled, so there is no fan noise to worry about. On average usage, while watching a film, we measured a high of 37\u00b0C in temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">RockTek G2 Next vs RockTek G2 Technical Specs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This table compares the <a href=\"https:\/\/droix.net\/product\/rocktek-g2-next\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RockTek G2 Next<\/a> with the original <a href=\"https:\/\/droix.net\/product\/rocktek-g2\/?cgkit_search_word=rocktek%20g2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RockTek G2<\/a> side by side.

benchmarks in this <a href=\"https:\/\/droix.net\/product\/rocktek-g2-next\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RockTek G2 Next<\/a> review, we compared the new model with the original RockTek G2 to see what the performance differences are. Across all three tests the newer box comes out clearly ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Geekbench 5<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Geekbench 5 the <a href=\"https:\/\/droix.net\/product\/rocktek-g2-next\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RockTek G2 Next<\/a> gains about 35.4% in single-core and about 47.6% in multi-core over the original RockTek G2. That is a noticeable step up for menu responsiveness and app loading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Geekbench 5<\/th><th>RockTek G2<\/th><th>RockTek G2 Next<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Single core<\/td><td>144<\/td><td>195<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Multi-core<\/td><td>456<\/td><td>673<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AnTuTu<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/droix.net\/product\/rocktek-g2-next\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RockTek G2 Next<\/a> scores about 49.8% higher than the RockTek G2 in AnTuTu. The overall system score rises from 112,678 to 168,775, which reflects the faster CPU and newer GPU working together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>AnTuTu<\/th><th>Score<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>RockTek G2<\/td><td>112,678<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>RockTek G2 Next<\/td><td>168,775<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3DMark<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The graphics gain is the biggest in this RockTek G2 Next review: the <a href=\"https:\/\/droix.net\/product\/rocktek-g2-next\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RockTek G2 Next<\/a> scores about 168.5% higher in Slingshot, and it also completes Wild Life Extreme, which the RockTek G2 did not run. That points to the Mali-G310 V2 being a much stronger GPU for games and emulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>3DMark<\/th><th>RockTek G2<\/th><th>RockTek G2 Next<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Slingshot<\/td><td>593<\/td><td>1592<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Wild Life Extreme<\/td><td>Did not run<\/td><td>152<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Video and Audio Formats Compatibility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Format support is a key part of any <a href=\"https:\/\/droix.net\/product\/rocktek-g2-next\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RockTek G2 Next<\/a> review.

class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is the RockTek G2 Next worth buying?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, the RockTek G2 Next is worth buying if you want a Google TV box with Wi-Fi 6, Gigabit Ethernet and strong format support. It scores about 49.8% higher than the RockTek G2 in AnTuTu while using 3.6W at full load.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is the RockTek G2 Next faster than the RockTek G2?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, the <a href=\"https:\/\/droix.net\/product\/rocktek-g2-next\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RockTek G2 Next<\/a> is faster in every benchmark we ran. Geekbench 5 gives 195 single-core and 673 multi-core, against 144 and 456 for the RockTek G2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does the RockTek G2 Next support Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, Dolby Vision, Dolby TrueHD and Dolby Atmos all work with apps such as Plex and Jellyfin.

PSP emulation is mixed and depends on how demanding the game is.
