    Im considering ordering the quick ship one(I need a laptop asap). The 17 I think might be to big, but im wondering how the graphics card is in the 15. I can't find any info or specs on it

    According to HP support, the new Envy 15 has the 7690M(which they annoyingly list as 1GB Discrete Graphics AMD Radeon), while the 17 is listed as having the 6850M.(Both envy's im looking at are quick ships)

    I think I see my mistake, the 2280NR is actually last series and the 3040NR is the new one, so thats why the cards are different. How are the 3 series for games?
