There are only a handful of 12" notebooks out there, and almost all of them doesn't have a dGPU...
12" notebooks are pretty expensive because of the smaller profile which is harder to cramp all the hardware inside

Closest would be:
Samsung 3 series NP350U2B, i3-2350M + Intel HD3000@RM2099, 4GB, 500GB, W7HP *earlier variants i.e. i3-2310M can fetch at around RM1.5k only... However, you might wanna check/ wait for Ivy Bridge versions (if there is one)... especially if you only want a 12" subnotebook
AND
Asus VX6S-ORA015M, Atom D2700 + AMD HD6470M@RM1799[1.5kg], color: orange *it has a dGPU, but the CPU is rather weak (netbook processor), but it sure looks great, and the craftsmanship is top notch...
If you are unwilling to compromise in terms of performance, then you might wanna consider 13" notebooks, you'll get more bang-for-buck there
Woah you actually reply everybody personally huh

I really appreciate the info thanks
The Asus you're talking about is the Lamborghini one right? I like automobile themes but this one is a little too flashy for my taste.
Netbooks aren't normally sold with SSDs anymore right? ): I have to decrease my budget then because I just can't tahan HDDs anymore haha
What are some good netbooks below 1.5k? I guess screen size don't matter much but 1080p is a must. I'll forget bout gaming

Priority is fast, snappy, no slow downs and great to use
