When it comes to notebooks, there's a fine line between gaming and entertainment. (Angry Birds is one thing; Aliens vs. Predator is quite another.) HP delivers speed, battery life, great audio, and even some DirectX 11 muscle at a decent price, making this a worthwhile pick for media enthusiasts.

It really comes down to whether you're willing to pay a small fortune for an SSD. While it dramatically improves the boot time and responsiveness on this notebook, the option adds $420 to the price tag. You could get a 1080p display instead and pay $1,334 instead of $1,604. Overall, though, the HP Pavilion dv7t Quad Edition is one of our favorite 17-inch notebooks.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
