I have used this g6 series HP laptop.In my opinion if you looking for a high usage laptop its not the right one.Though it has intel processor but performance of the laptop is not as much it looks.For gaming purpose it can run high graphics games but it will harm your machine noticibly.I used this series of laptop for 2 years, and now its in my store room like a waste.It was not just my problem my 2 friends who have this series of laptops are also passenger of same stream.The laptop was so poor condition no service centre cant do anything with it including HPS zonal service centre.So moral of the story is if you buy this it can run any type of application but who knows when the laptop left you permanently.SO GOOD LUCK.
