Can the Mali 760 handle OpenGLES3.2?

I just received an Asus Tinkerboard which has an Mali 764 on it, I was very excited to see it included libs for OpenGLES3.1. But I have seen on some reports that the 760 series can handle OpenGLES3.2 is that correct and if so, where could I locate drivers to use it on my Tinkerboard?

  • Hi Brian,

    The hardware can support OpenGL ES 3.2.

    Newer drivers will need to be sourced via the device or chipset manufacturer; most drivers are customized by them to support the platform power management and other parts of the multimedia system (YUV formats, framebuffer compression in the display controller, etc).

    Note that most of the functionality in OpenGL ES 3.2 is available in earlier driver releases as the Android Extension Pack extension, which predates the OpenGL ES 3.2 release by about 12 months, so you might want to see if this provides an alternative route to getting this functionality on your existing drivers.
