Which laptop should I buy [details inside]?

Hey everyone, I’m a student who’s about to start university and thought about buying a new laptop for school and occasional gaming. Right now, I’m hesitating between Asus Zenbook and MSI GL62m 7RDX-1427CA. Any thoughts on which computer is the best suited for my needs? Other than that, I’m opened for other suggestions as long as it stays in the same price range (Around 1200$ CAD)
