Zotac ZBOX MAGNUS EN970 Giveaway

The Zotac ZBox is exactly what I've been looking for. I want something small that I can use to game in the living room and it's easy to take on the go when I travel. This smaller than most micro itx builds can be thus making it the ultimate travel companion. I don't have a lot of space on my TV set up either so this would fit in nice to that area without being an eyesore. The specs are right inline with the specs I need to run most games I play on high settings over 1080p.

Thanks for the opportunity!

This is what I've been wanting! I'm currently converting all of our DVD's and old Family VHS tapes to put on a home media server. This would be my media server and would fit perfectly next to my TV. I've been hesitant to get a micro PC because of performance concerns. This has impressive performance for a micro form-factor system. Nice job ZOTAC!

Well for me it would be the compactness. This is because in my parents boat, I have a small room with a tv. And with the ZBOX I could get a computer there and be aboe to do stuff I couldn't do with my phone in the boat.

Bob's your uncle!

Thanks for the cool giveaway!

 

If I had a ZBox, I would use it as the dorm room console PC. Hook it up to a TV and have it run FIFA, Netflix, etc. It would be a pretty sweet addition to the room for sure!

The small form factor is quite attractive and is ideal if you want your room to be more spatious. It'd make a great Christmas present for my 9-year old sister, she always wanted to play PC games with me, but we never could really afford a decent computer for her due to our low income. While I myself can't see spending $800 on it, I think if my sister got it as a present, it'd become her most favorite thing as a first gaming computer. :)

A pc like this would be perfect for me, given I'm usually having to move my setup while gaming and because I'm off to uni at the end of this year, really hope I win!

Yeah I would want this,  I would put it in my master bedroom.  Connect it to my TV and game from the comfort of my Cali King powered reclining bed.  No reasons to get out of the bed on the weekend. If getting the power of that little thing into a box by myself and fitting it into my stand in the bedroom was simple I would have done it already.

I travel a lot and it's a pain taking my PC along everywhere and can't afford a laptop, something like the ZBOX would be perfect, also it looks sexy.

This would be a great system to use for entertaining friends and family. Having a small system mounted on my TV to play starwal, gangbeasts, dokapon kingdom or mario party would be amazing!

It would be easy to pack up and take to anyone's house. Hell, I would let my friends borrow it if they wanted it.

This way I don't have to beg for a steam link for Christmas!

I've been interested in a small form factor pc for higher end gaming in the living room, but have not been too enthused by most of the options so far. The size and power of the ZBOX MAGNUS EN970 is exciting, presenting a discreet, attractive appearance fitting for an entertainment center while still providing a solid playing experience for demanding titles. Thank you Zotac, for the opportunity with this giveaway.
