Ok ill get right to it.

I want to know if i can the same performance out of a cheaper (But Overclocked) laptop. instead of buying the more expensive one.

Here are the specs for the more expensive one.

HP Pavilion dv6-6144ca

A8-3500M 1.5 GHZ (2.5 turbo) quad core
8GB ram
AMD Radeon HD 6750M
5400RPM HDD

This is a refurb on newegg.... 579.00


Here is the one i want to overclock

Lenovo IdeaPad Z575 (12992PU)

A6-3420M 1.5 GHZ (2.5 Turbo) quad core
It comes with 6 GB im going to make it 8GB right off the bat.
AMD Radeon HD 6650M
5400RPM HDD

This is a non refurb and comes out to 500 even.

SO my question is.

With some tweaking and overclocking of the Lenovo. will i be able to see the same amount of performance compared to the HP Refurb?????

If heat becomes an issue from overclocking im also buying a 200mm Fan Laptop stand.

thanks guys
