Battery life isn't a huge issue for me, since I'll probably doing most of my heavy computing at home.

At that price range, if shopping on Newegg, this is probably your best bet:

It has a decent Nvidia 540M and it is equipped with Optimus technology which means it can switch to the IGP in the i5 CPU to provide graphics when you are not using intensive 3D on the dedicated graphics card, therefore you will get up to double the battery life as compared to a similar laptop that can only run off the dedicated graphics.
