DV6-6165tx Perfect for gaming
For ex: 6165tx can play GTA4 fluently with all details at high including shadows but not in case of XPS15

6165tx in every expect.. Dell XPS 15 is machine full of hardware errors
I am using 6165tx and I'm very much satisfied except average screen display.
Alienware is overall better.. but much pricey that's why i bought this.
Best price at nehru place new delhi is 56.5k

I'm getting 30+ fps in all most every i played..
around 50+ in GTA IV
50 in black ops
30+ in saints row 3
30+ in nfs the run
40+ in assassin creed 4
I dont think i need a good cooler I do OC though.. just using some local cooler gifted by shopkeeper and i cant find any heating issue :)

For gaming, get the 6165TX. For multimedia, get the Dell.

Click to expand...

FRAPS show fps, record video game movies, screen capture software

I'm locking this thread now. Since it was a random bump by a member whose post has been moved to the correct thread. :)
