@Stampyquack2467 IMO the Surface Pro is a very powerful business/student computer. Sims 4 is a 3D graphical game and should be played on a computer with a dedicated graphics chip and a cpu with a steady clock. This will require more power. The Surface Pro is designed to conserve power to let the battery last longer. Most integrated video chips do not have true dedicated video memory. This game requires 128Mb of true dedicated video memory to run properly. While there is no saying the game will not run on below spec computers, this game has future expansion and it is possible that if the game is running that conditions may exist to cause the game not to run properly.
From experience the game will run on a Microsoft Surface Book 2, with an i7 and a GeForce card.
The GeForce card is located in the base, so for the game to run good the keyboard needs to be attached.
Only issue, that Surface isn't below 500 dollar. So I'd suggest saving a little bit more money if you want to game and own a Surface.
