Hi guys, just want to see if anyone here has some more info about
these two laptops. Here are the graphics chips inside of these two
laptops:

HP G60-120US 15.6" Widescreen laptop (US$599)
with
NVIDIA GeForce 8200M with up to 1407MB total graphics memory

vs.

HP HP Pavilion dv7-1130us (US$679)
with
ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics RS780M with 1918MB of shared graphics
memory

Q1: Which graphics chips has better performance for 3D games?

Q2: The dv7-1130us seems to be able to upgrade to 8GB, what benefit or
what type of applications could really use up to 8GB of ram??

Thanks!
