ZOTAC ZBOX Bluray AD03 (ZBOX-AD03BR-PLUS-U) Review

To test power consumption today we are using a Kill A Watt power meter. We loaded the system with some games and measured results at both full load and idle.

At idle, the system demands only 30 watts of power, which rises to 44 watts at full load.

DLSS 5 NVIDIA

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.

  1. I always liked this design but never dug the atom inside. this is finally one I would buy. might even cause some damage to my credit card.

  2. I dont think you could build something nicer looking yourself, not often I say that.

  3. Personally I think the 2GB of memory is a bit tight. 4GB would have cost them very very little and would have helped performance noticeably

  4. Yeah im afraid I would need to budget more memory for this. 2GB is quite poor decision making IMO. nothing should ship with 2GB anymore. memory is so damn cheap.

    otherwise great look media system, very attractive. good to hear noise levels are low.

  5. I really like the design, very nicely finished.

  6. Its cool looking, but id want a core i3 version, those low powered machine are slow as molasses normally
