Out of the 3 you posted, none offers a good configuration for her needs. The Sony has good specs but its GPU won't handle any gaming while the other two have a GPU which can handle minor gaming but with only 1GB of RAM they won't be much fun.

Try checking out the Dell Vostro series. They offer considerably better value. This configuration for example is much better than any of the notebooks you link to (the GPU alone is much faster) and it still is cheaper:
