Are you looking for a Gaming Laptop at a reasonable price?
Well HP Pavilion G6-2005AX might just help you end your search.Priced at around Rs 33000/- this laptop is just the right laptop for all those gamers out there who are on a limited budget. The laptop comes with a 1 GB AMD Radeon HD 7670M dedicated graphic card and a 512 MB AMD Radeon HD 7640G integrated graphic card.
The laptop offers a AMD Quad Core A8 processor with a clock speed of 1.90 Ghz and is better than most i3 Processors and almost comparable to the Intel i5 processors. The processor is great for Window user's however you could have trouble using Linux due to poor BIOS and lack of support from AMD.
It offers a storage space of 500GB and a 4GB RAM which is upgradable up to 8GB and offers a battery backup of around 4-5 hours on medium brightness.
The laptop comes with a screen size of 15.6 inch and a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels which is expected at this price. The glossy finish on the exterior and interiors makes the laptop prone to dust and finger prints. The audio quality is good but the webcam quality is very poor and you might need an external camera for Video Conferencing.
One of the major problems faced by the users of this laptop is that the drivers come per-installed and HP does not provide any driver CD.However, the drivers can be downloaded from the HP Website. Another problem faced by users is that the arrow keys are a little different and the user will require some time to adjust with this design.
The Gaming experience is very good keeping in mind the price of this laptop.The Laptop is able to smothly run games like Crysis 2, DIRT 3, Splinter Cell Conviction in High Quality Graphic Modes.In Addition to that you can play NFS Run, World in Conflict, Resident Evil.
The laptop remains reasonably cool during normal use but heats up moderately when playing games for a longer duration. The overheating is mainly at the side vents, the keybord and the touch pad remain cool. Moreover, overheating is a problem with almost every gaming laptop unless you go for the Alienware series. I have seen laptops coming with Intel Processors and costing almost double the price of this laptop having similar problems.
The major concern people have with this laptop is the AMD processor. I would like to reassure you that AMD is a great company and it is perfectly ok to buy a laptop with an AMD processor. A lot of gamers prefer AMD processor over Intel when it comes to gaming.
Overall, i would say that this is a great gaming laptop and i would personally recommend it. For this price the laptop is a steal. The laptop is available at Flipkart for Rs 33990/- which includes a free backpack, a cooling pad and 1 year extended On-Site Warranty). If you do not wish to avail the free goodies you can buy this laptop from Infibeam at Rs 32,799/-.
