Zotac ZBox Nano AD10 Plus Review

The American Megatrends UEFI interface is a stripped down configuration which suits the target audience. Many of the main features are included and it is well laid out.

The green circular backlight can be disabled in the bios, as can the USB 2.0 charge option (when the system is off). The remote controller support may need to be enabled, this can be accessed in the Super IO Configuration menu via the CIR Controller Configuration.

To test the Fusion platform today we have decided to focus on a mixture of real world and synthetic tests. These sections are clearly marked and can be skipped as desired. We also included a couple of game benchmark tests as the AMD APU has onboard graphics capability. We will compare some of the performance sections against an Atom 1.8GHZ D525 processor.

We installed Windows 7 64 bit Enterprise via our USB flash drive.

All drivers installed perfectly from the supplied disc.
