For only $586 the 15.6in HP Pavilion dv6-6b00ax is a very affordably priced allrounder that has much better graphics rendering power than what’s normal for the price. It uses the AMD Radeon HD 6755G2 Dual Graphics, a combination of the AMD Radeon HD 6750M dedicated graphics card and AMD Radeon HD 6520G integrated graphics. This is definitely good enough for modern games at medium to high settings, which for this price is a rarity. There’s also a mid-range AMD A-Series A6 processor and 4GB of RAM, so overall the 6b00ax can handle a variety of computing tasks well.

Processor
The 6b00ax has the AMD A-Series A6-3410MX (1.8GHz), a mid-range AMD processor which can run productivity applications and some intensive software. It can speed up to 2.5GHz if a more demanding program is running.

Graphics
It has AMD Radeon HD 6755G2 Dual Graphics, which is a combination of an AMD Radeon HD 6750M dedicated graphics card and AMD Radeon HD 6520G integrated graphics. It will be able to run most modern games at high settings, while more demanding titles should run at medium to high settings.

RAM
4GB of RAM is enough to run several programs at once smoothly. This will be sufficient for moderately intensive image and video editing tasks as well.

Storage
A 640GB hard disk drive is large enough for important files along with plenty of programs and documents.

Screen
The 6b00ax sports a 15.6in (1,366x768 resolution) gloss screen. The gloss screen does make outdoor usage a bit of a struggle, but stay out of direct sunlight and it’s still fine.

Portability
The portability is average, because the 6b00ax weighs 2.63kg and is 35.2mm thick. It'll be straightforward to carry around.
