The first impression from the new ZOTAC ZBOX nano AD12 and its Plus version is "Those are really small!". This mini-PC can be confused with ADSL modem. It has computing power of AMD E2-1800 (2 cores at 1700 MHz) and Radeon HD 7340 graphics. Built-in graphics is capable of providing resolutions up to 2560x1600 which will guarantee perfect sharpness even at huge plasma screens.

The mini PC leaves a good impression. The performance is sufficient for undemanding applications, the equipment is designed for the use as a HTPC. In addition the system convince, especially in times of rising energy prices, with a low power consumption.
