Sure. Because of that, my main question is about the perhaps very similar models DV7 20xx/QuadCore and DV7 30xx/Core i7/720QM.
Until today I didn't see a review of any DV7 3xxx models with core i7, so a 2 months old DV7 21xx (Q9000 CPU) review is my base point.

I use nVidia and ATI, but would take ATI nowadays ;-) They have climbed back up, surely. nVidia is having issues with some contractual paperwork, so they are having a disadvantage at the moment and in the near future.

cheers ...

Yes, after so much hot spot problems with my old Nvidia GO6150 I was happy to see that HP is using ATI for DV7 models, but now they change again to Nvidia...
