Im really confused as to which laptop i would be getting. The choices are as follows:
http://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/s...ertainment+powerhouse&series_name=dv7z_series
For the first choice, im gonna upgrade it to 3GB RAM (w/c is free), upgrade the processor to
AMD Turion(TM) X2 Dual-Core Mobile Processor RM-70 (2.0GHz), the video card to 256MB ATI Radeon(TM) HD 3450 Graphics, and the battery to 8 Cell Lithium Ion Battery totalling $988.99.
The other option is:

As for the second choice, im considering to order it on its base configuration (plus the 3GB RAM upgrade) for a total of $949.99 since i am on a budget of under $1000K..
I intend to use the laptop to make case presentations in med school, and also would like to play games on it. I've heard constatly that ATI Radeon and AMD are better than Nvidia and Intel chips, respectively, in desktop PCs. Does it apply to notebook computers as well? Suggestions other than these 2 HP notebooks? I would really appreciate help on this one. Thanks.
