the HP dv6-6017tx, 6121tx, 6140tx and dv6-6165tx thread

Empirial

Youngling
Here is a list of some of the games that i've tried on this awesome machine:-

Crysis Warhead
Crysis 2
Resident Evil 5
NFS Hot Pursuit
GRID
COD Black Ops

Every single one of these games run flawlessly on this laptop at MAX graphics settings and at MAX resolution and with FULL AA and AF !!!

The ATI 6770 is a beast of a gfx card for a laptop and XPS15's 540M does'nt stand a chance in front of it !!!

So for gaming I'd suggest 6017TX any day...

Thats Great!!!

Hi...wat about d heating issues?

Well obviously it does get heated up quite a bit while playin games but thats the only time this happens, and today i used a friends DV6 3*** i7 laptop and it ran hotter while general usage compared to when i am playin games on my laptop. While general usage (surfin, movies, etc) the fan is almost noiseless and there is hardly any heat buildup anywhere on the laptop.

And i've been using it in an non ac room till now and not to forget its gettin really hot these days (43-45C max temp here in bhopal) so anyone who is going to use it most of the time in a ac room simply has nothin to worry about AT ALL !!!

Btw the battery lasts 4-5 hours on general usage and 2.5-3.5 on moderate to heavy usage... BUT the cant really comment on the gaming part, just to test it, i started crysis on 36% batt and in 20 mins laptop went to sleep i.e. 6% battery. So i suppose you can get an hour of HEAVY gamin on full battery...

Thanks...is it gud for continuous gaming of 2-3 hours?...does it shutdown on heating?

Cant comment on that as most i've played continously is 30-40 mins but i think it should be ok for an hour or two... and absolutely no worries if the room is cool enough...

Its almost the same as any other i7 Laptop, I've tried 4 including mine and I found all of them almost the same while gaming... but since I have a Belkin cooling pad mine was a bit better...

Dude thanks a lot .

I am going for 6017 Tx .

Good, go for it but do keep one thing in mind while buying, your laptopz serial no will be in a XXXNUMMXXX format, mine was XXX117XXXX, the first 3 digits of the number I.e. 117 in my case should be greater than 108 and if it is less than 108 then it belongs to the Intel's Series 6 rev_04 faulty chipset...

Hey buddy..

Can you answer a few questions for me, even I'm looking for a good laptop:

1. How heavy is this laptop?
2. What is the battery backup you get on normal usage, web browsing, movies etc.? 3. 3. How's the build quality?

1. Its a little heavier than other sub 45k laptops but defiantly lighter than XPS15

2. I already posted about the battery life on the previous page look into it and i played 2 movies continuously i.e. just above 3 hours, 40 mins on full brightness and full vol speakers and rest 50% brightness and with apple ipod headphones...

3. Build quality is really good, best i've seen, in the league of XPS15 i'd say...

All are easy :D

Which college ? :p

Ahh no m just frustrated cuzz they eat up a lot of my time !!!
N m in SIRT...
