I'm gonna buy a notebook for my girlfriend.
As there is a little price difference (About 50€) I just want to know if there is a big difference between Nvidia 7150M and 7400 Go.
The notebook I'm looking at are:

HP Pavilion - DV6359ea and HP Pavilion - DV6510el

Ty in advance.
Also other suggestion about other similar price notebook are welcome.

The 7400 is a dedicated card with it's own memory that can also steal some from the system memory. The 7150 is an integrated chip that only steals memory from the system. I need to know how much those are and what she wants to use it for before I can recommend anything.

I can buy the dv6359ea for 724.00 Eur and the dv6510el for 665.00 Eur.
She will use the notebook almost for internet surfing, chat some game.
Nothing pro but I prefer to spend little more if I get something usefull.
I know i could get something better for this price for example from Dell but she really likes HP Pavilion style >< (girls :) )

Ty for your help

If the main use is web-surfing, email checking, document writing and video watching, either one will do the trick. Basic tasks like those don't really require much in the way of horsepower. HP systems aren't that bad of a value.

The bad thing is that the one with the 7400 have only 1Gb of RAM

Another good one could be DV6530EL - 2Gb Ram and 8400M video card.

Yup, that would be better. Stronger, newer video card and the 2gb of RAM is a plus.
