gaming on surface pro 2

[tornadog]

Just ordered a surface pro 2 from the Microsoft store using the 10% student discount + $100 promo code. I would like to play some strategy games like AOW3, and tropico 4. Would these run smoothly on the SP2?

I've played Tropico 4 on my Surface Pro and it was decent. You have to tune down the settings a bit to find the right balance between prettiness and playability but it can be done.

The SP2 is like 10-20% faster than the SP, GPU-wise, so you should be fine.
