There are only a handful of ultrabooks to choose from at the moment, so choosing one won't be hard~

Can consider these (assuming you only want SSD versions only):
13"
HP [Ultrabook] Pavilion dm3-1001TU (Folio 13), i5-2467M + Intel HD3000 + 128GB SSD@RM2999[1.49kg], W7HP

14"
Toshiba [Ultrabook] Satellite U840-1003U, i5-2467M + Intel HD3000M + 128GB SSD@RM3199[1.7kg], 4GB, backlit keyboard, color: silver

Intel HD3000 is not really capable of gaming now that Intel HD4000 is available... and the GT525M is considered as outdated too..

Apart from the ones with GT630m, can consider this one as well:
HP Pavilion G4-2026TX/2027TX, i3-2350M + AMD HD7670M@RM1999, 4GB, 640GB(5400rpm), W7HP; colors: black/red

For Asus 14" laptop with budget 2k, there are only:

A43Sd- VX419V/420V/421V/422V, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT610M@RM1899[2.4kg], W7HP, 2GB, 500GB(5400rpm), colors: black/blue/red/white
A43Sm-VX102v, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT630M@RM2099[2.4kg], 2GB, 500GB (5400rpm)

A43Sd has a weaker GPU, A43Sm has a better one. It will be more suitable for engineering softwares.

If your friend is not buying in a hurry, you might want to ask him to wait for Ivy Bridge refresh to the A43Sd, probably the A45Vm (i5) nod.gif
Its just a matter of time before they upgrade to i5-3210M hmm.gif

It has already happened, just look at those who purchased the previous Asus U31 ZenBook... the new ZenBook prime with better specs and not to mention the IPS FullHD screen was similarly priced to the previous one.. I'm sure alot of people would be butthurt by this laugh.gif
