Anybody here with a Surface Pro 3?

Im thinking about buying a Surface Pro 3 (i5 or i3 CPU) and read a lot of reviews but they never mention gaming performance. I know its extreme slow hardware but is it able to play Kerbal Space Program with a decent partcount (about 300?). How does the performance change when its running on intern/external power (if there is a difference at all)?

Does it overheat and slow down after some time?

Is it more limited by CPU or GPU?

Which settings result in a decent fps?

How long does the battery last while playing KSP?

Also im wondering which other games you can play on it. Some example where im interessted in the performance are:

PPSSPP (PSP emulator, my favorite game is Monster Hunter Freedom Ultimate)

Smite

Minecraft (with some Mods, i know it runs fine vanilla)

Team Fortress 2

Sins Of a Solar Empire Rebellion

Left 4 Dead 2

I also would like to hear what you are playing on it...

Its perfect for students if your university supports e-learning. I can use it as a notebook, i can work with the powerpoint presentations provided by the professors (mark stuff etc ) since we get them before we listen to them, i can store the books (we can download them for free at the university) and i can write protocols about experiments i made. The gaming is just a bonus...
