If this was a decision between Stanford CS & UT-Honors Turing Scholar, then my answer might be different, but Yale is not the equivalent of Stanford CS, & Yale CS is not on the same level as UT-Austin Honors & Turing Scholar for CS.

If OP was uncertain as to CS as a major & career goal, then Yale would most likely be the better option. Based on what OP has shared on CC, UT-Austin Honors & Turing Scholar is the better option for CS.

P.S. Plus, OP might be a Texas resident & entitled to in-state tuition at UT-Austin. Even though OP wrote that cost is not a factor, we do not know why. Is it due to extravagant family wealth, substantial financial aid grants or a family intoxicated by the name & prestige of Yale & therefore willing to mortgage the farm for Ivy League prestige.
