Dv6z now customizable on hp site with backlit keyboard

Some of the options are:

Processor up to AMD Quad-Core A10-4600M Accelerated Processor
Graphics card up to 2GB AMD Radeon(TM) HD 7730M Graphics
Display up to 15.6-inch diagonal Full HD Anti-glare LED-backlit Display (1920 x 1080)
Keyboard Backlit Keyboard

But we need those HP coupons like they give to their Intel models.
I think Intel gives HP kickbacks to push Intel over AMD.

 

crossfire performance would be interesting.

 

So bad talking about graphics. They could put a better graphics in the DV6z-7000. Now I think DV6z-7000 is a big step back from DV6z-6000. Where is GDDR5?

Hope HP release at least a 7750 in their DV6-Windows 8 Refresh... I love the HP design but the configuration...

Now, I hope MSI release a good configurations in their GX60

 

What other manufacturer offers an AMD A10-4600M and full HD 1920x1080 screen?

 

With GCN GPU? I can only Remember MSI... Without it, I have seen some others, but I'm not sure if the screen is FullHD...

 

What's the point without a full HD screen?

 

I have the same APU and GPU config, at this time crossfire is not enabled. The graphics architecture is different between to two GPU's.
However I did read rumors that a hybrid driver is in the works, but I would count on HP giving us one thats for sure.

The 7730M is a fairly soild offering but is let down by it DDR3 and low clock speed.
HP have set the 7730M to 575MHz. Overclocking is ultra bad, I can max out a tiny 15MHz overclock to only 590MHz, and even that is pushing it!

I have just taken a look at HP's website, if any one is to go with the extra graphics, then go with the 7670M 1GB option over the above GPU. Yes it is older, but you likely have more success, if not already enabled, at using this in crossfire.

 

Is the 7670M DDR5?

 

It remember when everybody asked for HybridCrossFireX in the Puma Platform... DV5z by that time... but that was capped by HP, so HybridCF never came in the first releases... But now... Nobody knows... Maybe the different architecture will never be compatible for CF or maybe all of Trinity+GCN get the CF...

Maybe, 7670M could be DDR3 or GDDR5... But I'm pretty sure HP will offer it by using DDR3 as with 7730...

The main difference between 7750 and 7730 is the GDDR5, as far I know both are the same chip... Why HP don't put the 7750 or even the 7770?

 

Because the Envy 15 (a premium product) already uses the 7750M.

 

Pretty funny that "premium" graphics according to hp are a 7750.

 

Yeah, If Envy 15 is the Top Line, they must have put an 7850m, like the Envy17.

Anyway as far I know, HP used to put the same GPU in DV6z and Envy15...

 

[edit: misread quoted post]

 

So what i must know is that 7660g+7730m won't work in crossfire?

If that's so, i could only pick using 7730m or 7660g 1 at same time, right? and then, 7660g+7670m in crossfire would be getting more prefomance than 7730m alone? Am i right? or maybe i'm missing something to consider? Please help me, i want to buy this laptop without regretting

 

Hello searching out over there i found with some information. The perfomance of the 7660g + 7670m in dual graphics mode would be at equal level as the nvidia 650m, getting 2083 pts on 3dmark11 before the 2089 from the nvidia 650m

Here is the review with pictures from AMD(7660g+7670m and other few tests)

You can check over here the review of the Nvidia 650m(in the downside are the beenchmarks)

What do you think? Trustable or... too supercial? How it looks like?

Now i would like to see a hand-to-hand between those 2, 7660g+7670m vs 650m, and see how really they perform at true games, not those beenchmarking tests
