What you want don't exist.
GTX means gaming grade graphics -> Why do you need gaming grade graphics? Such laptops battery life are usually below 3 hours.

For gaming laptops below 2kg, there is only a small handful, MSI GS60, Asus G501 (2.1kg). That is about it. Alll are selling much higher than your budget, and have shorter battery life.

You probably have to dropped your graphics requirement to a GT graphics since you need it for light gaming only. In fact, Intel Shared Graphics are cable of playing many games now. What type of games do you play?

Cheers!
