Couple that to the 15.6" HD screen, and you've got a decent gaming machine that will run The Sims 3 on nearly high settings, and should run GTA4 on decent settings, and COD4 will run quite well too.

    Better still, you could get the dv6-1215sa for £549, which has an RM-74 dual core processor (about 0.1Ghz more), Bluetooth, a 320Gb HDD, and 4Gb of RAM.
    Just looked at the specs of the dv6-1215sa and it looks awesome. So yeah that wouldn't be a bad choice at all.

    I'd just like to add an additional point too. If you don't like gaming on a laptop screen and would rather use a monitor, the dv6-1210 AND 1215 have HDMI ports, and are capable of 1080p when linked into a 1080p source (monitor, or a TV). I use mine on our 37" Full HD TV, and the picture is immense.

    Although you FPS will be rather low considering the graphics card in the laptop aint excally the most powerful card in the world and you're playing it at a very high resolution.

    On a certain graphics-intensive 3D car game I go on, I get around 30-40fps using the laptop screen. It's about 32 on the big screen. It's not that bad on the TV screen, and the picture is immense.
