hi guys. i need help on choosing between lenovo models:

G405s, A8-5550M + AMD HD8570M@RM1699, 4GB, 500GB, W8
G400s, i5-3230M + Nvidia GT720M@RM1799, 4GB, 500GB, W8

Usage: for photo & video editing. simple autocad drawing and multitasking and light online gaming.

i went to lowyat plaza the salesman suggest me to get the A8-5550M bcoz it got 4 cores (good for multitasking i guess) compare to i5-3230 (which only has 2 cores) isnt true?

BTW about the gpu. i check on the internet, the AMD HD8570M gpu is a bad gpu compared to Nvidia GT720M. Plus, isnt true AMD processors easily get overheating problems?

any comments from sifus I would appreciate it very much
