Zotac Zbox AD03BR-PLUS-U Desktop PC Review
Its performance on everyday apps is a bit less attractive. We installed Windows 7 Ultimate on the system just so we could run our usual spate of benchmark tests, and most of the tests were beyond the Zbox's modest capabilities. After PCMark Vantage (for overall system evaluation) and Handbrake (for testing video encoding) failed to start, Cinebench R11.5 netted a terrible 0.61, and we needed nearly 15 minutes to run through our usual collection of a dozen filters in Photoshop CS5, we decided there was no point in bothering with games.
