As the title says, a friend of mine wants to buy a laptop. They are around the same price, but what I see as a big difference is the cpu in each. Is A8 7410 worth buying over an 4rth or 5th generation i5 cpu?

Thanks for the replies. We concluded that she will buy a laptop with intel i5 5200U because it is better and it will be harder to get damaged

Thanks for the recommendation but these cost way more than what my friend can't afford that much and she wants to play a few games.
