Looking for what is the difference between these two setups?

Looking to purchase one of these in the upcoming days but I am fairly inexperienced when it comes to PC's so I thought I would ask here. The main difference I could find is one has a better motherboard but other than that why is the other on 200 dollars more? Thanks so much I hope this is not a stupid question.

I am leaning towards the Asus rig with the Ryzen 7 because I feel like this setup will last me 10+ years and 200 would be a worthy investment.

Basically, the ASUS is charging you $200 more for a processor upgrade and a bigger SSD(512Gb vs 240Gb)... Both seem fair for the price overall at current rates.
