Zotac unveiled the Zbox CI360 nano ultra-compact mini-PC for basic tasks
By ForGeeks
Zotac has launched the Zbox CI360 nano — a compact system with a volume of only 0.9 liters, aimed at users who need a low-cost computer for everyday and simple tasks.
The Zbox CI360 nano is an ultra-compact mini-PC that can be used for basic tasks.
The device is powered by the Intel N150 processor — a quad-core chip with a power consumption of just 6 watts. It has a base frequency of 0.8 GHz, and can be overclocked to 3.6 GHz in acceleration mode. In tests, the performance is comparable to the 2017 Intel Core i5-8250U, making the system suitable for web surfing, email and other simple usage scenarios.

Zbox CI360 features a single DDR5-4800 SODIMM slot with support for up to 16GB of RAM, with the base configuration coming with 4GB of RAM. For storage, there are two 2280 M.2 slots: one already holds a 128GB SSD, while the other supports PCIe 3.0 x1 or SATA drives.
On the front panel are one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A port and one USB Type-C port, which can also be used as a DisplayPort video output. At the back are two more USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports. All USB ports offer data transfer speeds of up to 10Gbps.
The mini-PC supports connecting up to three displays simultaneously — via two HDMI 2.0 ports and USB-C with DisplayPort. All are capable of displaying images in 4K resolution at 60Hz. Networking capabilities include two gigabit Ethernet ports, Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. There’s also an SD card slot and standard audio jacks.
Graphics are handled by Intel’s integrated graphics core, which has 24 executive units. It’s suitable for video playback and basic hardware acceleration, but it’s not designed for demanding tasks. The novelty replaced the CI338 model released about a year ago. It comes with Windows 11 support, a VESA mount, and a power supply.
