Project 1999 - Gaming Ultrabook Advice

I'm looking to buy an ultra portable gaming laptop and squeak by under 1k. I already have a laptop that acts as my desktop a beefy asus 2 years old that doesn't grunt at any games I throw at it. The goal with this laptop is to be on the go and still good quality for eq, lol, counter strike for the most part.

I've narrowed my solution to these 2 models, curious if anyone has any feedback or an alternative:

Acer u m5

Dell z14

Spec wise they feel fairly close, so I'm all ears to the little things that might make one better than the other. If anyone knows a good option cheaper that I could upgrade to a similar o,r better performance at around the same price with an aftermarket ssd or ram I'm open to good ideas. :)
