Hello!

I'm wondering if anyone can provide thoughts on using Adobe Illustrator CC and Photoshop CC with a Microsoft Surface Book. Specifically, I'm curious about the Surface Book with a 256GB SSD, 8GB of RAM, a 2.4GHz Intel i5 processor, and NVIDIA graphics.

I know it's an older model, but does anyone have experiencing using the Surface Book for graphics work with Illustrator and Photoshop, and if so, is performance acceptable? Thanks!

    Check it against the minimum requirements for Photoshop and Illustrator:

    Photoshop system requirements

    Adobe Illustrator system requirements

    If it meets them you should be ok.
