Thanks for the responses. All I can say is the SP3 with the UAG case did clock on average about 100MHz faster than the naked SP3 under Prime95 with the same exact load and being throttled. Had it only clocked at 2000MHz average at 100%CPU load, I would have been calling Microsoft for a...

You have to have a device connected in order to see this option in the systray. Just plug in a USB flash drive and you will see it. If nothing is connected, then it doesn't show in systray.

I just completed a test using two identical i5-256GB SP3's (both my fiancee's and mine) side by side. One with the Urban Armor case on and one bare naked ;). For quality control, these settings were identical on each machine. Advanced system settings - Performance - Let windows decide - Best...

Well, Sandisk does make solid products. It's just a regular microSD card, no different than one you would put in your phone. I'm 100% positive they just threw 'Surface Pro 3' in the title to get unsuspecting customers. By the way, you can format that microSD card, and just about any other...

I hope you did not buy that card. That's a rip off. Cancel you order or return it for a refund ASAP. You overpaid big time. Best 64GB microSD card deal you can get for your SP3 right now is this Samsung 64GB EVO microSDXC for $29.99. It is also faster than the SanDisk you ordered.

I have been using this case for the last 5-6 hours and it feels amazing to not feel any heat from my SP3 while holding it. Also, as for your thoughts about heat dissipation, this case is superbly ventilated. The hole cutouts in the case follow the vent holes that are actually operational in the...

In the real world, transferring should theoretically be twice at fast going from 45MB/s to 90MB/s. The speed you see advertised is usually for faster transfer of data, and to record HD video, and if you want, even do 4k recording. It's nice to be able to transfer a 6GB movie from your computer...

The fastest 128GB microSDXC card just got released by Lexar at 95MB/s. Adorama has it for $129.99 with free shipping. This is the card I plan on purchasing since it's made by Micron, which is very good quality in my opinion. Just note that this card is available for pre-order, and should be...

I had a $25 screen protector on my SP3 but since took it off. It was messing up the touch sensitivity, and a lot of times I had to keep re-tapping the same place over and over. Since then, I have never looked back and don't plan on ever putting a screen protector back on, besides the type cover...

URBAN ARMOR GEAR for Surface Pro 3 - Amazon This is what happen's when you merge Spiderman's suit with Urban Armor. You get the most solid, robust case the world has ever seen. Seriously, this is the best looking case I have ever seen for any device in my entire life. I'm not kidding. If the...

I just got mine 5 minutes ago via UPS and.......YES!!!!!!! You can wrap the keyboard behind it perfectly to write on. It actually feels even better wrapped around with the case on. The build quality on this case is AMAZING... Its like Spiderman's suit, but armored, lol. Will post some pics in a...

Yes, that's why the price is low. Just order at this low price to lock in the deal, and they will ship it once they get more in stock. Beware, once Amazon does get more in stock, they usually raise the price back up as well. As long as you order at the $46 price, once they ship it you will only...

This Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter and a nice quick video review, make sure to watch closely at the 24 second mark :)

Off the top of my head, I suspect the SP3's weakened 36-watt charger is no match for the SP2's and SP1's monster 48-watt charger.

Amazon is currently selling this case that just released October 2nd, at $46 for the red, and $48 for the black. Take note, that they are currently out of stock, but once they do come in stock, I suspect the price will jump back up to the normal $69.99. If you don't mind waiting a week or so...

Its a catch-22 of sorts. Web surfing for example has no distinguishable difference in either of the i3/i5/i7 models, yet I can assure you the i5 and i7 use more power than the i3. The reason is the i3 has a max TDP of 11.5 watts, and the i5 and i7 have a max TDP of 15 watts. Of course like...

To the OP, why would you not spring for a Sandisk Ultra 128GB microSDXC? Basically double your storage capacity for about $109 on Amazon, and I seen them go for around $80 on th e bay, and thats for the newer 48MB/s one. Not bad considering a SP3-256GB model cost $300 more than yours. Or if...

Wow, seems the i3-64GB and the i5-128GB models get superb battery life, maybe some i5 -256GB and i7-256GB and i7-512GB users can chime in as well. My thinking is maybe the i5-256GB uses more battery power to power the 8GB of RAM and the 256GB mSATA SSD, whereas the 128GB and 64GB models only...

I'm trying to find out who gets the best battery on their Surface Pro 3 vs whats apps you have running in the Systray. The reason is that it really blows getting only 5.08 hours of average battery life on my new SP3 just web browsing. That's slightly more than half of Microsoft's advertised...

Lol, I despise UAC so much, that I will just manually run the Sleep Status and Battery Energy Report myself. I refuse to ever turn on UAC. It's like the plague. Luckily, Battery Report does not need to be run as admin, and is the only report I will probably run weekly. The other 2 maybe monthly.
