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

[piyus_h]

After reading this whole thread ... it reminds me of those lines for anna i.e " MAIN BHI HP TU BHI HP AB TOH SARA DESH HAI HP" ......... LOL.

The dv6 6165tx model hasn't been specified on the HP website....

is it better to go for 6121tx or 6165tx since if the latter is a new model there might be unresolved issues.....

6165tx has the same hardware except for a backlit keyboard.

Misconceptions about 6165tx (copied from flipkart) Hope this helps

1.There are 2 memory(RAM) slots on this and ONLY ONE is used(not both as mentioned in the specs by Flipkart).

2.The speakers may be Altec Lansing made but the Beats Audio Engine is still there. (Beats Audio is actually the sound engine in the laptop and not the speakers itself)

3.HDMI port is indeed PRESENT and is v1.4a. (All laptops in the dv6 6100 series have HDMI ports)

Also it is not mentioned here but the processor supports Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 and can go upto speed off 3.1GHz if required by an application.

How is the game play?
What about the switchable graphics?

game play is awesome it beats the **** out of my friend's dell xps 15.
it is supposedly having same issue of opengl as in dv6 6100 earlier i which computer don't use amd graphics in opengl applications though sure it is going to be resolved in future.
in other words awesome laptop other than spekers and it's glossy finish(u have to clean it every now and then)

Is it going to harm the system in any way?
What I think is because of the LED, the light is passing as its way may not have been blocked. So, no problem. Other's views please.

 

[Prongs298]

Hey its a nuisance but does no harm. Go ahead.

Hey its a nuisance but does no harm. Go ahead.

Thank you..

Guys,it doesn't have backlit keyboard!

I bought it in a local shop.
It is super cool for normal operations,when gaming it does heat up.
It has Cool Sense.
I'll post some pics tomorrow.

How is the laptop so far as you used? I am planning to buy the same. Will you recommend it?

 

[nCyCoD]
