THere's no real point in getting the UX32 if you are not into gaming at all
For 1080p movies the UX31A ZenBook would be the better pick but its unfortunately out of your budget

For your budget, try going for this one instead:
13"
HP [Ultrabook] Envy SpectreXT 13-2215TU, i5-3317U + Intel HD4000 + 128GB SSD@RM2899[1.39kg], 4GB, W8,backlit keyboard

*Use remaining money to extend warranty to 3 years~
Putting in an SSD will not void the warranty as long as you don't damage the notebook within the process
