The Dell Venue 8 Pro is running a Z3740D. It is slightly different to the other two which runs Z3740 in that it only does single channel memory and lowered max resolution. The difference is very slight though.

Go with the note if only for the Stylus

Have you checked to see how capable these machines are with playing Dota 2?
For instance, my T100 struggles playing League of Legends at a playable frame rate. It can play it, but in the frenzy of a battle, the processor does struggle.
