not in the games I played. But games like Flight simulator that depend on CPU more than GPU (never tried the game) may give lower framerates. This is just a guess

i have ordered a hp dv6-6165 laptop from flipkart for 54800. but now they have updated the price of this laptop to 58k. I m yet to receive this product and will be delivered to me in 2 days. Anyways i just read all these posts and seriously i didnt know so much can be to improve the performance of the laptop.

Thank you.

I thought there were 4 slots for RAM? Anyway, I think upgrading to 8GB will be enough for the time being for me.

der were only 2 slots for ram ...... & yup 8 GB will b more than enough

thnx man..playin mw3 nd luvin it..d nly ting i reeely wantd more wz a 1080p screen wudv bin a life changer ..nd ya i changed d gfx mode nw its 6.9!!!! i wz tinkin of upgrading my ram to 8 gb is it ne gud?...nd also can the Ergostand b comfortable for usin on da lap???...coz i heard d u3 is def not...

ya u r right U 3 had some angle issues .... bt Ergostand is ok on lap .....if u want more comfortability u can check Coolermaster Notepal X2...

their is slight difference in speed & performance after adding another 4 GB Ram... so its up on u .....

You and swoosh were lucky to buy it for 55000; otherwise it's available everywhere for 57-58K only....

Urgent help needed...

I partitioned the hard disk to install Ubuntu on it, and it was all fine. But after I installed Ubuntu, though I would get Windows & option in Grub, it won't start. And even the recovery options (F11) won't work. And I haven't created the recovery disks

I tried to install Windows 7 ultimate on it, but the installation won't recognize the hard drive; it asks for a SATA driver, and HP's web site don't have a sata driver.

So basically I am stuck with a new laptop which won't boot. Please help me out

\N

I am seriously impressed by HP customer support. After this fiasco, I contacted them through chat on Monday and registered my complaint. They promised to send me the disks, and voila I received them yesterday. They were shipped from Singapore and yet I got them within 4 days of registering the complaint. Now my lappy is functional again

\N

i want to buy a hp dv6 6165tx in lucknow but it is available for 57k w/o accesories.

Should i wait for some time for the prices to get stable??
i mean to lessen down.

plz suggest any other lappy within this range itself ..

 

[balkeet]

i dont own a dv6 but i might drop the idea of buying a 6121tx since its 6770m is having issues and go for inspiron 15r 5110.Spending 52k on a gadget is no small amount and u expect flawless performance but 6770m has so many issues spilled over net.

[balkeet]

should i go for 6121tx or inspiron 15r n5110??
i fear 6121 for hp highest hardware failure rate of 25% as
opposed to dell 18% but specs of 6121 are more future proof
while dell is so reliable.

HI Guys!
I want to buy HP Pavilion dv6-6165tx.
I was going thru d thread n noticed many post abt its various issues.
Is it a good laptop o no.. considering it has DDR5 n graphic switch is fixed with the new BIOS update?
If not can you suggest me a good laptop with the same or higher config. my budget is 62k-65k?
