HP will be offering me with a replacement model as there are a few problems with my laptop ...
Is there any existing Pavilion DV6 that has all those specs ... and or more?

Are the new A6 AMD APU's ... better than the P960?

I have seen the HP Pavilion DV6-6b00 and DV6-6c00 ... I cannot see what is the difference between the b and c?

Cheers
and thank you in advance.

 

P.S. ... I just noticed the 6b00 has only the A6-3410MX APU's and only up to 640GB hard drives ... so they will be out of the question I guess.

The 6c00 has the A6-3430MX a bit more powerful APU's ... and with 750GB's hard drives.

 

I think this is the closest like to like replacement
HP Pavilion dv6-6c11sa Entertainment Notebook
HP Pavilion dv6-6c11sa Entertainment Notebook PC (A8K05EA)
As not many others have USB 3.0 ports, card reader, simple pass reader, dual graphics ... etc

I don't know now what is the diffrence between an EA or SA at the end of the model number?

 

Shall I assume noone has an opinion on those models?

 

OK ... I was just offered the
