A:AnswerI was able to solve this by following these directions: https://steamcommunity.com/app/233250/discussions/2/558749190911446231/
I downloaded the latest beta drivers (the .zip not the .exe) from https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25541/Intel-Beta-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-1-10-15-40- and basically you just go through the device manager, select the display drivers and update them with the contents of the .zip you downloaded by selecting the .inf file inside.
A:AnswerI cannot definitively give an answer, but it looks good to me. FWIW I took a USB stick with some sample images and checked the display before I bought the unit. I also do a lot of graphics work: Lightroom, Photoshop and Corel. Much better than my 5 year old VAIO, as good as my MacBook Pro. Asus adds an option to minimize blue light exposure which sounds some suspect to me - it gives everything a sepia tone - turn it off.

A:AnswerThe laptop should be fine for everyday gaming, but would not be considered a power-gamer device. The video card is an Intel HD 520 series and would not rate very well against a dedicated gaming video card. The laptop plays games such as World of Warcraft fine if you turn the graphics down a little, but more recent high-speed action games might show degraded performance.
A:AnswerYou cannot connect 2 monitors on this model unit. You can connect 1 external monitor with it. It has 1 x HDMI port that you can use to connect.
