HP upgraded its Pavilion dv6 mobile workstation back in April, but that particular laptop has once again gone through a hardware revision.

In this instance, a new chip has joined the list of available processors: the AMD A8-4500M accelerated processing unit.

That's right, HP's popular mobile workstation can now be configured with a Trinity APU, and the move even brings the price down by $100 (80 Euro).

Said processor boasts the Radeon HD 7640G integrated graphics and is backed up by 6 GB of RAM (random access memory). The laptop also gets a hard disk drive of 750 GB.

For those who forgot what the Intel-powered Pavilion dv6 sells for, the tag is $800 / 635 Euro. That means this APU version is available at $700 / 555 Euro (according to exchange rates anyhow).
