Reviews for the HP Pavilion dv7-2180us
Source: Comp Reviews
Archive.org versionHP markets the Pavilion dv7-2180us as an entertainment laptop. This is certainly something that it is capable of but HP focused much more at general purpose performance. With the new quad core processor from Intel and 6GB of memory, this system should have no problem dealing with multitasking or processor intensive tasks like video editing. The downside is that the system is not quite as entertainment focused as it only comes with a DVD burner and a display that doesn't quite reach 1080p high definition resolutions.

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.
Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.
