Acer Aspire 5560G

AMD A8-3500M 1.5Ghz (2.4GhzTurbo)
8 GB RAM
750 GB HDD
AMD Radeon HD 6620G + 6650M

OR

HP Pavilion dv6-6c12ea
AMD A6-3430MX 1.7Ghz (2.4Ghz Turbo)
8GB RAM
1TB HDD
AMD Radeon HD 6520G + 7670M (or 7690M EDIT is defo the 7670M)

Amazon is stating the HP has a 7670M but the HP site says this exact model comes with a 7690M????

Both are around the same price.

If the HP comes with a 7690M then it makes the HP a far better deal. However if it comes with a 7670M I'm unsure, the 6650M is bascially the same chip? Performance being very similar, would the difference between a 6520G and a 6620G be worth taking into account?

Guess what i'm saying is what is, worth more in terms of gaming performance.
1.7Ghz Base Clock + 6520G OR 1.5Ghz Base clock + 6620G ?

Plus even if the HP comes with the 7690M is it worth buying one as i have heard some horror stories about their reliability and after sales care?

Opinions?????
