Sierra Chart Hardware Requirements

Hello,

I would like to buy a Microsoft Surface Tablet to be able to also trade from the tablet in the future. As a hardware requirement for Sierra Chart I think at least 16 GB RAM is recommended for charts to run smoothly. The Surface that I intend to buy (Microsoft Surface Pro 8) has 8 GB of RAM. I have the smallest Sierra Chart service package and actually only use simple charts, nothing graphically complex.
Do you think 8 GB of RAM is enough for this purpose as a Surface with 16 GB is already much more expensive?

Thank you and best regards

8 GB will be fine. The 16 GB is recommended not really for Sierra Chart, but to ensure there is enough for the operating system and other programs and still have enough left over for Sierra Chart.
