Sony Vaio vs DV6 Which one?

[DellUser630]

I'm interested in these 2 laptops, not sure which one would be better for games?
The HP DV6 has:
15.6" Screen
AMD Quad Core A6 3420M 2.4Ghz
Radeon 7690M GDDR5 Graphics 1GB Dedicated
6GB RAM
$5??

Sony Vaio
14.1" Screen
Intel B960
Nvidia GeForce 410M 1 GB Dedicated
4GB RAM
$599

I prefer the 14" Size.

What do you think?

Unfortunately the HP has better specs. Quad core processor compared to a dual core and it has a better gpu. Also has more system memory. Its just that I can't stand recommending HP products, have had nothing but issues with them.

HPs, specicially AMD based ones, have been nothing but trouble since the dv2000/6000/9000 series. I simply do not trust anything from them. I actually went through my spare parts recently and about 80% of all my spare optical drives were from dead HP computers (both desktop and laptop)

Anyway, back to the question. The HP does technically have the better graphics of the two. However, the B9xx processors are VERY quick. If you're not gaming, I'd go with the Sony for sure. If you want to game...well I'd still look elsewhere.
