Reviews for the HP Compaq Presario V6620US
80% Compaq Presario V6620US Budget Notebook PC
Source: Comp Reviews 
Compaq's new Presario V6600 line of notebooks is essentially identical to the HP Pavilion dv6600 line of notebook PCs. This is useful to know as consumers can pretty much look at either of the two models and be getting the exact same system. Powering the Presario V6620US notebook computer is the AMD Athlon 64 X2 TK-55 dual core mobile processor. This is a fairly strong offering from AMD that will work well for most computing tasks, but it isn't as energy efficient or powerful as the newer Intel Core 2 Duo processors starting to make it into the lower cost notebooks. The one gigabyte of PC2-5300 DDR2 memory is average for the market segment and lets it run Vista Home Premium alright, but don't expect to be multi tasking much without upgrading. Storage is very strong for the budget oriented Presario V6620US. The system ships with a very large 160GB hard drive that is double the size of most notebooks in this price category.

Comment
NVIDIA GeForce 7150M: This is an integrated (shared memory) graphic card for laptops with AMD processors (socket S1), inserted upon nForce 630M. The difference to 7000M is that 7150M offers HD-video decoding for MPEG2, H.264 in 720p.
Only older games can be played fluently with these graphics chips (if they were not too demanding). Shared memory graphic cores in this category got the advantage of less heat production and longer battery runtimes. For office, internet, image processing, and video editing tasks these graphics chips are still useable without any restrictions.

15.4": 15 inch display-variants are the standard and are used for more than the half of all notebooks. 15.4 inch display with 16:10 are the standard for notebook displays.
The reason why so many people like displays with medium size is, that this size is not exhausting for the eyes, does not need too much current and the laptops can be kept quite compact.
>> To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
2.6 kg: This notebook is lighter than the average of all notebooks. It is too heavy for sub-notebooks. 14 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
HP: HP is one of the biggest international manufacturers according market shares and reviewed models at the German- and English-speaking market. HP notebooks are often in top positions according price/value ratings.
80%: This rating is not convincing. It must be considered, that there exist hardly any laptops, which receive a rating below 60%. This notebook is evaluated below average, this is not really a recommendation for purchase.
