Windows Tablet running games?
Hey I was just wondering if anybody could help me with how much power you would need to run most games. The only computer I have at the moment is an Acer Aspire Switch 10 (Basically a glorified tablet). I mostly just wanted to try Left 4 Dead 2.

I've discovered I don't have enough memory first of all. Before going out and buying a micro sd card for memory, I'd like to know if its even worth it? (Don't tell me to go out and buy a PC)Opinions are appreciated, thanks.

I highly doubt it will download or run...
first of all, you need the client to download games and as far as I know windows tablets / mobile devices aren't supported by the mobile app. And even if it were, it wouldn't let you download games anyway.

I've downloaded steam and already purchased the game if that's what you meant. My Tablet is more like a hybrid PC/tablet.
it's still a tablet... but good luck anyways ;)

What about an ordinary laptop then, couple years old. I'd have to borrow it.

depends, if it meets the minimum system requirements, then yes, most likely.

Pretty sure it does. I guess that's what im gonna have to do then. Thanks for your opinion
Tablets can run such games; if it's a fairly new (2014 and newer) Windows 8.1 Tablet (not Windows RT) and u need to have USB hub for Keyboard / Mouse most likely.

It doesn't take much at all to run a game like Left4Dead2

Yeah I got it a few months ago, has a keyboard with mouse usb port windows 8.1

I checked most of the specs that I could, I mean I figured out it has 2gb of ram which is minimum req.

just found a specsheet of a Switch 10 model (Part Number: NT.L48SP.001) with more details, maybe it matches yours on some levels, but here you go: {ODKAZ SMAZÁN} and click the link which says "View full data sheet".

It's gotten to a point where im more curious to see if it will actually work than really caring if it does lol.

Processor on mine is a 1.33Ghz (Quadcore)

Min specs for left 4 dead 2 is 3.0Ghz (Pentium 4)

Guess that means nope?

well, that's the reason I subbed to this thread, lol. My curiosity got tickled... but yeah that does look like a problem, although those cpus handle stuff differently.

Do u have a Windows 8.1 Tablet?
If so, it should work, despite the lowered mobile specs.

Well unless somebody knows for sure that this won't work, I will likely try finding a cheap micro sd. Ill update the thread if I do and how it goes.

Maybe ill try a smaller free game and see how that goes
