What are you trying to accomplish with these laptops? I wouldn't guess you're looking to do gaming, because that is still done mostly on Windows. And if you're not gaming, that defeats most of the purpose of getting a discrete video card.
Also, in addition to the video card, there's more differences between the systems. The Mac uses a faster SSD while the ASUS uses a slower hybrid drive. The Mac uses a lower i5 while the ASUS uses a i7.
But stricktly speaking, the NVIDIA is a slightly better graphics card. In Skyrim on low settings, the Intel 4000 in the MacBook Air gets 30 FPS. The NVIDIA in the ASUS gets 36 FPS. In Diablo 3 on low settings, the ASUS gets 89 FPS while the MacBook Air gets around 50 FPS.
