Just bought this laptop - anyone know how to change the settings so that when I hit the function keys I can automatically get F1 - F12 instead of the HP function keys?
*
Finally someone bought it.. Congratz! I am sure its a wise decision having near-gaming level at sub 3.5k price
Bro can u do a review and some benchmarks to clear the doubts prejudice of everyone towards this laptop? Many ppl have been ASSUMING there's overheating in this new model just because the previous model is using i7-720qm and have higher temps..
Does it come with the switchable graphics yet?

Actually benchmark and temperature testing review for this model already done in a US forum, the benchmark for the GC is very good, around 12k in 3dmark06. For the temperature, the maximum reaches at 90C.

It does come with switchable graphic, but this feature need to wait AMD to release their new driver and HP to release their BIOS update on that.

I mentioned that because I am wanting someone who really have that model in Malaysia to justify the uncertainties/doubts that many other forummers are having.. Because IMO, the price/specs are worthed killing for.. Asus's one is like 400-500g heavier..

I highly agree with you. I would like to hear the locals opinion as well. You never know that it might suit us but does not suit them well.

Yup bought from Mobility Square in Lowyat where they upgraded me to 8GB RAM and threw in the 9 cell battery all for RM3499. Not sure if it originally came with 9 cell or not but I'm quite sure it was only 6 cell. Also threw in an extra RM100 to extend the warranty to three years, albeit with the last two years being local only.

Will try to do some testing maybe tomorrow or day after when I am more free and maybe write a review. New to this so maybe all you sifus here can tell me what I should be doing? tongue.gif

Right now more worried about the news about the new Intel Sandy Bridge processors being recalled.

Take some pictures and poison us....

Download HW Monitor to monitor temperatures...

Download and run 3D Mark06 to see what is the benchmark...

Play some games or watch video while monitoring the temperature changes of different cores and GPU (take a screenshot and show us)...

Tell us about ur views for the keyboard, touchpad, screen yada-yada....

Try different settings in battery mode e.g. Battery saving, HIgh performance mode to see what are the battery lifes respectively...

Young one, you're entrusted with the duty of giving us all an impression of the HP-DV6!

P.S. Dun worry too much about the SB issue, if it really affects EVERYONE, then something would definitely be done about it...

Download FRAP and run some games to see what are the FPS...
