Surface Pro question

[Rottie]

Is it good for playing hardcore games and working on Photoshop with Wacom tablet? I am asking is because I thought it can replace desktop pc?

Thanks in advance!

It's good for playing reasonable games that you can expect out of Intel HD4400 -- & yes it works fine with Photoshop -- you don't need to use a wacom tablet either since it uses Wacom digitizer

Photoshop yes, games not really. It'll run some less demanding stuff, but IMO I wouldn't call modern games very playable

To give you an idea... Borderlands 2 on my Surface Pro (first one) runs at 17 to 20 FPS with 720p and low settings. Borderlands 2 on my current Surface Pro 2 runs between 27 to 30 FPS with the 8GB ram configuration, again on low settings and 720p.

Mid setting Assassin's Creed - Brotherhood works fine and runs generally around 30fps-45fps

Thank you guys for replies. I assumed many of you are using 128GB version?
