Will Surface Laptop be a good medium game machine?

[Octagon31415]

What if we compare it to an iOS or Android tablet? Less games of better quality. On par. Thus, a good light gaming machine.

Nope, surface book not good for playing gta v and surface laptop too

They could have put a GTX 1050 or a 1050ti, and a 15" version with GTX 1060, it would have been perfect,
with a SD card slot and USB-C.

I think they didn't want this to affect the possibly upcoming Surface Pro and Book sales maybe later this year in October or in Q1 of 2018 (maybe including surface phone), with

-10nm Cannonlake CPU
-USB Type-C
-shipping with Redstone 3 (fall creators update)
-maybe volta GPUs

Nope just no unless you want to run games only from the windows store

You have to install Windows 10 Pro first and maybe you'll be able to play games like FIFA or NBA 2K but not wirh good graphics. There's an i5 or an i7 inside so it's a good beast.

You won't be able to do any serious gaming, that's for sure. But there are thousands of Steam games that will be perfectly playable. And some of those might actually be good.

Surface laptop is thin, light weighted and good for roaming purposes. When it was said for study purposes no one can play games in it.

hey there. what games qualify for "medium" gaming? if youre thinking portal/portal 2 then yeah its fine.

 

[TheRedRusher]

if you're going for the base model then you can likely play light games, but with the core i5 512 gb 8gb ram model you can do well with medium gaming and if you lower the settings, you can play some triple A titles.

Also, if you want to play hardware straining games in the highest possible quality, i don't think that the i7 models could handle it. so any game that you know will strain your pcs hardware if pushed to the limit, should be adjusted to have a playable experience.

hey, i agree with this statement. a gpu is necessary to play any hardware straining games, but adjusting the settings in the surface laptop will make games playable. maybe not pretty but playable.
