Hey guys, for a laptop that is mainly used for everyday web browsing, youtube, email, etc. Which of the two would you advise me to pick up?

 

option 1:

Option 2:

Is paying the extra 20 dollars worth the upgrade to a quad core? Since I am not sure basic web browsing would benefit at all from the extra cores..

 

Thanks!!

Honestly I have an Ivy Bridge Pentium and it's almost enough for web browsing most of the time. I would not recommend a Celeron.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

this would be a great option if you are willing to pay for it, it is much more powerful
