Reviews for the HP Pavilion dv6-2005AX
Source: Techtree.com
The 2005AX model isn't a big update when compared to the DV6 1211AX. It sells for an MRP of Rs. 49,703. That's slightly expensive when you compare it to the Dell Studio 15, which sells with a Core i3 2.26 GHz processor and slightly inferior ATI Radeon 4570 graphics for almost 6,000 rupees cheaper. This laptop would make a a good buy if it were priced lesser by three-four thousand. It does deliver on the gaming front and is definitely suitable for playing newer games at a smooth pace.
If you are looking for a laptop with a big screen and want to do some gaming, the HP DV6 2005AX is a decent buy. Just make sure you have a power plug nearby and its not kept on your lap while doing resource-intensive work.

ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650: The Mobility HD 4650 is based on the Desktop 4650 architecture, but features a lower clock rate of memory and core. Depending on the core clock (450-550MHz possible) and the used memory (DDR2, DDR3, GDDR3 with 600-800 MHz possible) the mobile 4650 can show a different performance. The current consumption of the chip alone ranges from 15-25W. Features Avivo HD video features.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

M500:
Entry level dual core CPU by AMD which features an integrated memory controller (400MHz DDR2) and is based (partially?) on the K10 core. The performance should be compareable to a 2.0 Celeron Dual Core / Pentium.

15.6": 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. However nowadays, more and more 16:9 displays with 15.6 inch appear. 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 energy 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.
