Windows 7 or Windows 10. There's no other competition. You'll see slightly better performance with Windows 10 and you have directX 12 support that you won't have in Windows 7, but you might see better support for older games on Windows 7.
Basically, I suggest Windows 10 unless you have a specific reason to opt for Windows 7. Windows 7 has been the operating system of choice for gamers for years, but I'm seeing more and more of those gamers migrate to Windows 10 as newer games come out and directX 12 becomes more necessary.

NO DOUBT,Windows 7 is the best Operating system for gaming laptops.Some older games are not goog supportted on Windows 10.

Like I said, I'd only choose Windows 7 if he has a specific reason, like an older game that won't play nice with Windows 10. And even then, most of those older games you can find on GOG's and you're all set to go. I'd choose Windows 10 for future support over Windows 7 for (maybe) superior compatibility.
