i5 is better:
The new Core i5 brings top of the line Nehalem-class performance just under the $200 price point. We recently awarded it our Recommended Buy honor after seeing it stand up to more expensive CPUs in games and other demanding apps.

For those desiring the best possible performance, the Core i5-750 can be overclocked to great effect, performing similarly to the $1,000 Core i7-975 Extreme at its stock settings when pushed a bit.

HP Pavilion DV6-2170US is better than the other one.
Sure its some $150-200 more but you get some very useful advantages like 500 GB vs 320 of storage, upto 8 hours of battery life compared to 4 hours in the other one
15.6''vs 14.1" in the other one
And it adds Intel HD Graphics with up to 1696MB Total Available Graphics Memory
which is to some extent very useful
 

I agree that the 2170 is better, but the "Intel HD graphics" is hardly a selling point. Although the new ones on the i5 systems are better than they used to be, they're still near the bottom of the heap.
