I'm starting college in the fall and looking for the best computer for the best price. I've narrowed it down to the Envy 14 or Pavilion dv6t with the following specs:

They pavilion is only $2 more so there is not a big price difference. I've tried doing research on which on is better, but i'm still confused. Any input would be very helpful even if it's suggesting a completely different computer. I just want to figure this out before it's too late to be shipped on time.

What are you doing on this laptop? I hope you're playing games because these specs are for a heavy gamer. Personally I would go with the Pavilion.
