First Laptop (University) Asus: Older Zenbook vs Brand New Vivobook?

I have always wanted an asus laptop. I've heard great things about them in terms of reliability (ranked 3rd best brand after Apple and Lenovo).

I'm buying my first laptop for my first year of university.
I game: Though I don't play shooters on PC (currently playing maplestory) .
I create word excel and graph documents, watch youtube and love to research.
Though I'll be living on campus, I'll be on the road a lot as I'll have to cross the border from Canada to the States for track & field with the ncaa.

Pros and Cons of each choice?

These are my favourite deals that I have found in my research. In terms of aesthetics and style, I, and most others I assume, love the Zenbook.
Which is a Better buy?
