Gets a dual-core CPU with integrated Radeon HD 7340 graphics

Zotac has been refining its small and charming Zbox Mini and Nano PC lineup ever since it first launched it, and today's announcement will tip the scales that were recently swayed in NVIDIA's favor.

What we mean by that is that, less than two weeks ago, the Zbox HTPC received NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 520 video card.

AMD is balancing things out by getting to power the Zbox Nano.

In fact, the 1.7 GHz dual-core AMD E2-1800 APU (accelerated processing unit) just so happens to integrate the Radeon HD 7340 GPU.

Thus, the palm-sized HTPC will have an easier time then ever running high-definition video, not to mention the increase in general program performance.

“Our ZOTAC ZBOX nano series is a user favorite as it enables full-fledged PCs in all rooms and locations. The palm-sized form factor is extremely flexible,” said Carsten Berger, marketing director, ZOTAC International.
