HP Envy 17 3D vs HP Pavilion dv6TQ

I need a new notebook, and I can't keep postponing it. Right now there are a few good HP deals available at the moment. I' choosing between these two. Both will set me back just over 800 euros...

It will serve as my workstation for heavy CAD, 3D work and my personal stuff.
The 15" is nicer to carry around. The Envy is built better.
I'm assuming the performance is similar? Any experiences? GPU's equally good?
