Nick, gaming, and computers all first met in 1981, with the love affair starting on a Sinclair ZX81 in kit form and a book on ZX Basic. He ended up becoming a physics and IT teacher, but by the late 1990s decided it was time to cut his teeth writing for a long defunct UK tech site.
All of us in the PC Gamer Hardware tower-of-tech love a good handheld gaming PC. Whether it's the luscious screen and brilliant software ecosystem of the, the market is awash with all kinds of devices. And now Zotac, purveyor of GeForce RTX graphics cards and mini PCs, is throwing its gauntlet into the ring with its, at the annual Computex event.
Zotac has also given the Zone a decent set of control options, with dualand two-stage adjustable triggers, radial dials around the sticks, two trackpads, plus two buttons around the back. Of course, we don't know how well these all work until we get our hands on a ZGZ and properly test it, but there's no shortage of control options, at least., with 8 CPU cores, 16 threads, and 768 RDNA 3 shaders that handle all the gaming duties.
Weighing in at 692 g , I expected the Zone to have a large battery but it's only rated to 43 Wh. That was acceptable a year or two ago but with the ROG Ally X sporting an 80 Wh battery with a similar weight, I do think Zotac has missed a trick here. He went on to do the same at Madonion, helping to write the help files for 3DMark and PCMark. After a short stint working at Beyond3D.com, Nick joined Futuremark full-time, as editor-in-chief for its gaming and hardware section, YouGamers. After the site shutdown, he became an engineering and computing lecturer for many years, but missed the writing bug. Cue four years at TechSpot.com and over 100 long articles on anything and everything.
