Depends on what you are doing but i would say that the "LENOVO G580 15.6" Laptop - Blue" pulls ahead because its processor.

HP has a better video card while Lenovo has better CPU. Both CPUs have TDP 35w. For browsing, movies and general use I would prefer Lenovo. For games (I know integrated cards are bad) but on low graphics HP is better.

Hi,

Upon a quick overview of your options I can state that:

Because if its processor, the Lenovo G580 is a solid option, but you must note that it has an integrated graphics card, which won't allow you to play any modern games, if that interests you. :kaola:

The other one, the HP Pavilion g6-2230sa is also a good solution, and it is more orientated towards gaming than the Lenovo G580 . It also provides more HDD space, so you can store more movies/music/games, obviously. :D
