Hello all,
I am planning to buy a surface pro 4 for college, but i don't know which configuration is the best for me.
I am studying civil engineer at the university of Ghent(Belgium), so I would use the surface pro 4 as my pc. I would use it for taking notes, programming in java/matlab, and calculating equations with Maple. I would go for the i5 processor then.
However, since there is a significant difference in price vs the 4gb or 8gb RAM i5 model. So, obviously i know that with 8gb your multitasking is much faster, but i don't know if that's important for me. I would only open 1 or 2 programs at a time probably.
Is the 4gb RAM a good choice then?
