What does Adobe say the hardware specs are? I'd try and find a copy of an older version. Illustrator and Pshop have done the basic stuff for years and years on end. If you don't need fluff features, get an older version. And a 3" thick "bible" from Amazon on each program if you want. They're next to free for older versions. And you OWN the license to older versions, none of the "cloud subscription" nonsense.

I ran After Effects on a cheapo core i3 laptop without much trouble (doing simple on-the-go stuff).. all in all I think you'll be fine.

It seems like it's a bit underpowered for the current versions of Illustrator and Photoshop, but it depends on what version of the software you want to run.
A good idea could be going to a store and try and use a portable version of Photoshop and Illustrator on a USB, it wouldn't be exactly the same as installing it on the hard drive, but it could give you a rough estimate of the performance.

>portable version of Photoshop and Illustrator on a USB

Forgot to say, if you do try this, use a USB 3.0 drive.

On my thinkpad x230 I run extremely fine Photoshop and Illustrator CS6. It has some troubles only when editing 1080p@60 videos on DaVinci Resolve or large scenes in c4d, but i think for you would be a great option.

Ive used the low-end Surface 3 TO edit in photoshop. it real sloe when you use the hefty tools, but in my experience ok. Ive used illustrator too and it ran suprisingly smooth. So a cheap I3 machine should be okay for your use.
