    Hi guys! I want to buy a new laptop and I can't decide between HP Pavilion DV6-6170em (LZ474EA) which has AMD Mobility Radeon HD 6770 (2GB) DDR5 graphic card and TOSHIBA Satellite P750-10N which has nVidia GeForce GT 540M (2GB) DDR3. They both have Intel Core i5 Processor 2410M (2.30 GHz, Turbo boost up to 2.93 GHz). Can anyone help me, please?

    The 6770 is significantly faster, having both a faster core and higher memory bandwith (GDDR5 as opposed to GDDR3)
