I was concerned about the heat issue of the dv6, so I was looking at other options too along with the HP.
I found that 550m is slightly slower than 6770m, how much slower, enough to make a difference?
In my thread, I got a reply stating that the Lenovo has a massive cooling system. Is that true? I am getting the 550m with i5, Ideapad. Should I consider it, whats your views?

6770m should give you ~35 fps extra. Add ~2-3 fps for i7 in some games

A couple of questions :-

1. I think 1 of the shops here still has 6017tx in stock. From what i see is the only diff between 6021 and 6017 is 1GB extra on graphics card(useless from what i have researched and read on this thread) and 140GB extra HDD space for 2k more which i don't think is worth it. Does anyone know of any other diff between the two... i'm inclined towards buying 6017.

2. Does anyone know if there would be any scheme coming up on this laptop during diwali and if yes then what could it be.

In what areas will the i7 prove beneficial than i5?

Is the dv6 heat during gaming controllable using a cool pad?
Click to expand...

You can simply control the heat by setting Max CPU to 60-70% and play without cooling pad or AC. Using these settings I could play COD black ops with maximum temps ~ 65 degrees.

i7 or i5 matters the most in CPU intensive tasks like Video conversions where CPU load is 100%

6017tx has not got automatic switching. So you have to switch gfx before playing games. For me it has become a habit now:smile:

If you don't want the extra 1GB on graphic card go for 6140tx. HP has an offer currently on its DV6 laptops in which it is giving a nokia c2 02 for 999. Also as the dollar has jumped, prices would soon rise. From what I have heard, Dell has already increased their prices.
