Grey, I received the cable matters mini DP to HDMI convertor and it works now but it looks like it was a windows custom scaling option more than anything. I put the Club 3D adaptor back on and it works too. What a joke, of course right after I buy this cable matters one.

Upgrading to the new pen I could see being worth it, but is the new type cover the one that MS is labelling as a "luxury" fabric? lol What's the release date for the new SP? I mean 2 generations newer and MS couldn't even make this thing slimmer and lighter? I mean if it was like half the...

Thanks Grey, can't you use the Pro 4 type cover and pen on the new SP? I would hate to have to dish our $300 more for something I already have. It's my dream to have the top of the line model (mainly cause I would want the 16GB ram, and of course an i7 is nice), but no way am I paying $3250cdn...

Thanks for the tips everyone. Greyfox - From what I was told, the new Pro that is coming out, it is pretty much a Pro 4 but with 50% battery life, that's about it. The screen isn't any better, the pen isn't any better, the device itself is practically the same.

Right now I have 3 year old SP3 with Pro 4 pen and Pro 4 keyboard 4th gen i5 128SSD 4GB and I came across someone selling a 5 month old SP4 for $900CDN obo with Pro 4 pen and keyboard 6th gen i5 256SSD 8GB My question is, how much would you be willing to pay in difference (from selling my...

i5 4GB 128SSD With Pro 4 pen and Pro 4 keyboard. Thoughts?

Interesting. I don't get why MS always has to make things to complicated. Just let all Surface devices do 4K 60 and be done with it. Seriously...

This was from using the Cable matters adaptor? And running your connection from your SB and SP4 to your monitor/TV through mini DP to HDMI 2.0? How were you able to get 4K 60 on your SP4? What Intel driver version are you using? I know on my previous 4K Philips monitor, through mini DP to...

Okay thanks. So it sounds like the Cable Matters adaptor is just more comptabile than the club 3D one and that it's not nessecarily better quality.

I would hate to have to buy a new HDMI 2.0 cable or HDMI to mini DP adator just to get this to work. I am using a CLUB 3D HDMI 2.0 cable as well. I would think it should be good enough. Is this the one you are referring to? Cable Matters Gold Plated Active Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Male to...

Oh I thought SP3 had a 256GB/8GB model with Nvidia GPU? I read online that these Intel GPU's in the SP3's can't output 4K over HDMI, only mini DP. When I had a 4K monitor with both DP and mini DP ports, I was able to get 4K 50 from the SP3 through mini DP. But on my Sony HDR TV now, (because...

I was told it's an Intel HD graphics related issue and that if you want to connect the SP3 to a 4K TV that has HDMI 2.0, that you will need a SP3 with Nvidia GPU. True?

Anyone done this before? Bunch of Youtube videos on this and since my SP3 is well out of warranty, I am thinking about putting in a 1TB SSD. The 128gb just isn't cutting it anymore.

I agree that it does feel better angled, but then you get keyboard flex whereas having it flat makes it feel so solid.

Which do you use mostly and why?

Do you think it was worth the upgrade?

Can i please smash this piece of garbage?

I found out what it is. My SP3 has been trying to update to windows 10 update version 1511, 10586. At the windows update screen, downloading,It keeps saying failed update

This is pissing me off, not sure whats happend to this piece of crap computer over the past couple weeks. I reboot or shutdown and it just hangs. Screen goes black, keyboard still lights up so I know the SP3 is still on. I have to hold the power button for a full minute before it powers off. I...
