Most websites show you the outside of the Surface Pro 3, which looks pretty snazzy with its premium design, beautiful silver color, black bezel, and of course the new multi-position stand, but not many websites show you what the Surface Pro 3 looks like on the inside.

Microsoft Surface Pro 3

You already know that this is no ordinary device. This tablet is a really well thought out device that aims to bridge the gap between a tablet and a laptop. It features the latest Intel Core processors (i3, i5 and i7) with the choice of 4GB or 8GB of RAM and storage configurations of 64GB, 128GB, 256GB and 512GB. With these configurations and this form factor, it is difficult to categorize the device, but Microsoft has made it clear that Surface Pro 3 is a laptop replacement that also works great as a tablet.

During the private Surface press event in New York City, the Surface team unveiled the new family member and also prepared a reception with many Surface Pro 3 demos for the press, including an open model. I had the chance to take some shots, and this is what the 12-inch tablet looks like on the inside.

The images you see below show the Surface Pro 3's motherboard, memory, battery, and other parts, but perhaps the most important component to highlight is the new cooling system that Microsoft invented and redesigned. Now the Surface tablet has a single thin and super quiet fan, you won't feel the airflow through the vents, and it's 30% more efficient than any other product today.
