I’m trying to go mobile, and am curious if this will run UE4. Anyone tried it, done it? Thanks!
If you have the 16" one it has a Quadro GPU, so it should be able to run it to some degree though probably not as well as a mid-range PC
Surface Pro 4 packs a decent even the older version Surface Pro 2 does similar things just that the CPU isn’t as powerful to handle UE4. If you’re only a BP heavy person on that computer you should be fine running UE4. Another thing about a Surface Pro on either version it works well for Zbrush you just need to adjust the pen to work properly for the Pro 2 rather than the Pro 4 the Pro 3 isn’t something I would recommend people of getting it’s more like an office computer.
You can get a refurbish Pro 2 500GB at a cheap value around $480 than it’s latest counterpart. I use a Pro 2 for UE4 in a BP heavy projects with little graphics required and most of my projects are Zbrush and Photoshop while my workstation uses UE4 for programming heavy, Maya modelling&animating including rigging, terrain generator from World Machine, and other heavy software that requires higher rendering and processing power.
Zbrush will run much better than UE4 on something like a Surface because it depends much more on RAM than it does on a GPU. For gaming software like UE4 you need a good GPU
