The computer was manufactured in two versions: CPC-300 and CPC-300E . The CPC-300E was a slimmed-down version. The CPC-300 was also produced in a Korean and an international version. The Korean keyboard contains Hangul characters. The splash screen was changed compared to the MSX computer and "IQ 2000" is displayed in Hangeul.

The CPC-300 has 128 Kbytes of working memory and 128 Kbytes of graphics memory , a battery-powered clock and two joystick ports, as well as a light pen interface and comes with the built-in "MSX-TUTOR" program.
