Review: Zotac Zbox Sphere OI520 Plus

Benchmarks: Temperature

We mentioned earlier in the review that the shape of Zotac's new chassis gives the inner components more room to breathe. This is borne out in our temperature measurements, which show that the Sphere runs noticeably cooler than a traditional Zbox or Intel NUC. The dip in temperature means there is little chance of throttling and noise levels are kept down to a minimum at all times.
