The Surface Pro 4 or Macbook air would absolutely not be able to play more demanding games like Fallout, Skyrim or GTA. It would even struggle playing Civ 5 (but it could handle TF2). I would recommend looking for something with at least Intel Iris 540 graphics, or a GTX 940M (they're about equivalent).
My best suggestion if you want something small and portable is the Lenovo ideapad 710S for $820. It's specs include a skylake i7 processor, 8gb of ram, and a 256gb pcie SSD. It also has intel Iris 540 graphics. It weighs in at just 2.6 pounds, but has a mediocre battery (6-7 hours).
Other than that, I may suggest waiting until the ASUS Zenbook UX410UQ releases, which should be within a month or so. It'll be a light, portable and sleek 14.0'' laptop with a GTX 940MX graphics card.
This Lenovo IdeaPad 710S would be a very good pick.. The great thing is that it has the Intel Iris Graphics 540 that does well in gaming... in addition, this laptop has a great build quality, nice display quality and decent battery life.
Sorry wrong link i meant this config it comes with 6th gen i7 dual core CPU ,8 GB of ram for smooth multitasking, Good SSD storage of 256 GB for faster boot up and loading, high build quality, long battery life, Intel Iris Graphics 540

Hey, thanks for the reply. Is https://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-IdeaPad-710S-13-3-Ultrabook/dp/B01IQJ36HU similar to the one you suggested (and will it be able to run overwatch at high)?
Thanks guys for recommendations.
Comparing Acer Aspire S13 ($600) to Asus Zenbook UX330UA ($700) I noticed that Asus' only advantages are slightly better processor and weight. I would definitely go for Acer because of the price.
However, I'm concerned about (what I've read) poor build quality of Acer. As I'll be traveling a lot, I would prefer to have a solid laptop (ideally aluminium over plastic). I can't really judge which one is better built.
What do you think?
I've noticed also that someone recommended Lenovo IdeaPad 710s ($800) in another thread. It seems to be built much better than Acer and Asus (I'm assuming it would last longer), has i7u processor and Iris 540.
Do you think those differences are worth $200 more?
And the weird thing, I find that specific Lenovo model to be more like $950 in EU, which is a lot more. Do you guys know a good dealer that is shipping them to EU?
