Testurteil: "8 out of 10"
Test: Einzeltest: ZOTAC ZBOXHD-ID34BR-U Blu-Ray HTPC
Zitat: Silver Bear Award
Pro: + Small, Stylish, and Cool Design with Fantastic Performance.
+ Plays Blu-Ray disks, Netflix, and Youtube videos at 1080p flawlessly.
+ Has gaming potential at minimum-to-average settings on older games.
+ CPU and GPU Overclocking potential.
+ USB 3.0 support for fast file transfers
+ Potential memory slots available for future upgrades.
+ By default, the system runs quietly, even under high loads.
Contra: - Sluggish delay in mouse movement, and typing.
- Hulu lags due to CPU rendering rather then GPU rendering. Flash 10.2 should fix this problem once Hulu updates their player (It will use GPU rendering)
- Front USB 2.0 ports are the only functional ports during booting. Doesn´t look good when you need to use these ports and your system is nicely put under the HDTV.
- Blu-Ray Player button really small and hard to press.
The ZOTAC ZBOXHD-ID34BR-U impressed us in many ways, including looks, overall size, features, and overall innovation. While its performance lacks, even with the fastest Intel ATOM processor, Blu-Ray video playback is fantastic, and online streaming should not be a problem on websites like Hulu once Flash 10.2 is released. Netflix and YouTube are a pleasure to watch. Because of this, the ZOTAC ZBOXHD-ID34BR-U deserves an 8 out of 10 points and the Bjorn3D Silver Bear Award .
