I'm looking to buy a laptop locally and these were really the only two choices I saw that I liked for the price. Help deciding for the final decision would be great. It will be for entertainment and games (D3/MaxPayne3) and school. The graphic card is the main part that has me wondering. I've owned a HP dv6500 for 4 years and it was okay - tends to overheat and fan is really loud which I didn't like.


1. Lenovo 17.3" 2nd Gen Intel Core i5-2450M @ 699.99
graphics card : ATI Radeon HD 6650M

2. HP Pavilion dv6-6c50ca i5 6gb @729.99
graphics card: AMD Radeon HD 7690M XT (1 GB DDR5 dedicated)

I think most other specs are around the same unless I overlooked something. HD space doesn't matter to me.

There was also a similar lenovo v570 15.6'' @699.99 but with a NVIDIA GeForce GT525M if that's any better.

Thank you.
