ZBOX edge MA762: Extra slim mini PC also suitable for Full HD gaming thanks to Ryzen 7 7840HS
The ZBOX edge MA762 from Zotac is a new mini PC with a powerful processor from AMD. The model can handle multiple, high-resolution screens and, for example, be mounted behind a monitor.
Zotac recently presented the ZBOX edge MA762, a new mini PC with a powerful AMD APU. The system measures just 149.5 x 149.5 mm and is also very flat at 28.5 mm. The system can be easily attached to the back of a monitor using a corresponding VESA mount. The AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS is a powerful APU with eight cores, and the chip comes with an AMD Radeon 780M graphics solution. Zotac states that the ZBOX edge MA762 can also be used to play games in Full HD resolution and at low details. A small fan helps with cooling.
The system is upgradeable, so the RAM and SSD are freely accessible. Up to 64 GB of 5600 MHz RAM is supported, with two additional DDR5 RAM slots available. A single SSD in M.2 2280 format can be installed. This is connected via four PCIe 4.0 lanes and has very high data transfer rates. A hard drive in 2.5-inch format, for example, cannot be installed, nor can a memory card.
HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort and USB 4 are available, allowing three 4K screens to be connected simultaneously. Three USB 3.2 ports are on board and the two Ethernet ports support Gigabit speed. WiFi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 allow for WLAN connections and the use of Bluetooth input devices or headsets.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

Growing up in regional Australia, I first became acquainted with computers in my early teens after a broken leg from a football (soccer) match temporarily condemned me to a predominately indoor lifestyle. Soon afterwards I was building my own systems. Now I live in Germany, having moved here in 2014, where I study philosophy and anthropology. I am particularly fascinated by how computer technology has fundamentally and dramatically reshaped human culture, and how it continues to do so.
