Are there any problems with this one? plz help..

Hi,
I have decided to buy an HP Pavilion dv6.i dont know the exact model no. but here's the configuration...
T6600 processor, 1GB ATI 4650 graphics card, 4gb DDr3 RAM, 500gb SATA, 15.6" display.
I had earlier decided on the dell studio 15 but i found the hp with better config.
Is it a wise choice?
Please reply...i am in a hurry...

 

I don't know who told you that the DV6 has DDR3 ram but I think they were mistaken. I wouldn't say that the DV6 would be any better or worse than any other HP out there (aside from the units effected by the Nvidia defect).

I also wanted to add, apparently the new ATI chips run pretty cool compared to the Nvidias (I.E the 9600GT)

 

Is it a better choice than studio 15? I would be doing moderate gaming,watching movies,browsing etc..this will be my 1st laptop.so i dnt know much about this dv6 series.looking at the specs it sounds good..any suggestions?

 

The model no. is dv6-1256TX.& it has got 4GB DDR2 RAM. The processor is T6600 2.2Ghz. 500GB SATA 7200rpm. 1024MB ATI RADEON HD 4650. Anyone has any suggestions on this one?

 

Seems like a more powerful version of my notebook, in which case I would definitely recommend it.

 

I'm happy with mine also(apart from the GPU that i'm going to change to the 4650 model)

 

Hi...
Is this model dv6-1256tx available in India???

 

Yes it is available in india.where r u 4m? It came 2 guwahati 3 days back.& more importantly i just bought this product last nite.& should i say i am loving it?its gorgeous.for my needs it looks perfect.l post a review here quite soon as i see its quite a new product.till now evrythin hs been a breeze.only one concern 4 me is that its runnin a bit hot.but i believe with its config its ok.any suggestions or questions are welcome...

 

Try running Real Temp and see if your temps agree with what your using now.
I know with my P7450 i had to alter TJMAX settings from 100 to 90 in HWMonitor/Everest to get it to read temps correctly......Real temp was one program that read correct straight away.(10degC lower)

 

How much did it cost??
Have you tried heavy games on this model.....tell more abt its performance..

 

It cost me Rs. 55000 & i got a targus carry case,a kingston data traveller 2GB pen drive & a optical mouse free with it. Regarding games i am in the process of procuring them.l certainly post them in a few days.in the meantime any other owners of this series please if u can post your gaming experience or paste some useful links 4 dis modelhere.would deeply appreciate it...

 

Give the full specification of the model dv6-1256tx......
