Thread Starter 

So I have been looking at these 2 HP laptops and am trying to decide which one to buy. Please give me your thoughts on them. Which processor is going to preform better, faster, has better cooling, etc? Also for basic graphics which is better? My kids play a few games and would like for them to continue to play them.

 

XXXXXXXXXX

 

OR

 

XXXXXXXXXXXX

 

Thanks!!

They are Best Buy site pages Steve. They can be toggled left Spanish and English at the top

@Kayla - please link back to the correct article (HP notebook) - the links you gave took us to the general page instead.

cheers ...

Sorry Q. I already removed them. My work blocker came up with them possibly being malicious.

No big deal Steve, the links Kayla had were not directed to the items in queries anyway - we couldn't give correct input

I would personally go with the AMD based HP G7. Larger screen, better graphic for game, and don't let the 1.8GHz (comparing to the Intel) fools you

Thanks!! Everyone online tells me go with the AMD and people in store tells me go with the i3. Says the AMD will bog down and get hot when multitasking... Maybe I should take the i3 back and try the AMD. I have 14days to return or exchange.

Definitively - use those 14 days of testing to your advantage - good luck

AMD CPUs are known to get hot- hotter than Intel

Not in this case, the AMD Phenom II Quad-Core Mobile Processor P960 (HP G7) TDP is rated at 25W vs the Core-i3 of 35W
