I can adjust my budget a little bit.

How does this one look?

I've never used a zenbook. I've eard mixed things - probably will previous models. Watch a review video on YouTube. I believe the track pad is what was "meh" about them.

Good price for the hardware in it but you might be better off going with a last gen cpu + dedicated graphics instead.

I might shell out the extra cash for this one.

I want to buy something this weekend, I can't decide.

I just like the look of the asus zenbook and how slim it is, plus it has all the specs I want with the i7, 512 gb ssd, 8 gb ram, windows 10.

is $1k too much for this?

I ended up buying this and upgrading the RAM to 16 GB
rip budget
