Thanks duke, I've just received the lappy but am totally confused over 2 things.. firstly, I can't find the model no. on it's body..just at one place it's written pavillion g6 :-x no "2005ax"..then another BIG problem..it shows 4 gb RAM is installed,but only 3.5 gb is usable.. :-x what is all this sh**? :-(

HP doesn't like to flash it long model no all over the body like other manufacturers. Near the display G6 is written and thats it.
About missing 512MB ram, Radeon 7640G (APU graphics) requires memory so 512MB is allocated to it.

Ok thanks.. :) but does this non-availability or ram would decrease the performance? I mean should I disable integrated graphics or something like that to use that unavailable memory? When I would disable dual graphics and would use high performance mode to play games, would that memory still be unusable? :-(

P.S: It was awesome to see my name in that owner list of this lappy.. :-D

i have tried arkham city runs with slight lag at these settings(extreme)..at medium settings it runs smoothly....but core temp will be around 90C...

Even me, playing Batman Arkham City in high settings ....no lags....very smooth....but as said by Duke, CPU temp reaches 90 to 95C. I play for 2 hours and temp goes to 95 but never more then that.

yes for me exact situation the temperature reaches 90 within 5 minutes of gameplay and fluctuates between 90-95C. the GPU temperature 75-80C..i played continuously for 3 hours but didnt experience any lags...for other low end games(counter strike 1.6,GTA San Andreas) CPU core is about 75C..but i am worried whether this is safe...will it fry the board...??

yes..turn off dual Graphics and run game in high performance mode....i tried this with arkham city ..
earlier dual graphhics performance was better(almost double in benchmarks) compared to using only GPU...but after the driver update to 12.8 there is no performance difference ...same benchmarks for dual graphics enabled/disabled....earlier WEI was lower(6.1 and 6.4) when dual graphics was enabled but now its same 6.7 for graphics and aero for dual graphics enabled/disabled..i am now experiencing negligible difference with switching..

Guys, how do you know the temperature of the CPU or GPU? May I know? I have never been into gaming that is why don't know this.

@Sam please add my name to list of owners as well.

posted this pic sometime ago. *i.imgur.com/azB4O.jpg this clearly shows that while the GPU remains cool, the laptops heats up and as at that time Trinity was not supported by HWMonitor so the processor readings are missing but i found something. Go to the 550P review at review section, there a similar screenshot is posted of HWMonitor which shows the laptop temperature and processor temperature to be same. So i guess, 90 is proccy temperature or sensor that is placed near the processor.
