I'd be interested in responses as well.

Thanks for all the insights / data. I'm continuing to follow the thread.

Thanks for your response. From the look of the thread it seems to be a common concern. It's not clear to me whether there is / has been real success in running CA on any kind of ultrabook let alone a Surface Book 2. It will be interesting to see if the light weights can handle the heat.

I'm in the market for a travel laptop that will run Chief X +. Ideally it would be a ultrabook 2 in 1 to be able to have a tablet with me (without carrying another stand alone tablet). Does anyone have any insight or experience with Microsoft's Surface Book 2 -15" with the 1060 video card? My local custom built computer shop says all of the ultrabooks/light weight units are going to lack the power needed to run Chief effectively. Any thoughts?
