PH315-52-78VL External Monitor / Dual Monitor Setup

RRV808

Is anyone here running a dual monitor setup with their Helios 300 PH315-52-78VL?? Docking Station Ideas?

I wanted to stream on OBS on my external monitor and game on my laptop or vise versa. Just wondering what dual monitor setup you are running. Since the laptop comes with a mini display port, is it just plug and play from there? 

Thanks

Prepare for problems, for example League of Legends wont run on external display since Nvidia dont care for years about theyr fkced up drivers. Prepare for your USBs getting ripped off board after ANY movement, making them undependable since once they work second time not. Prepare for overheating. Those laptops cant cool themself. Just get rid of that junk and buy another brand. Trust me, my laptop have all those "features" after a year.

I am. I used the mini-display port to a widescreen LG. It works brilliantly, and on my monitor g-sync is even enabled by going this route. 

I use my wide screen as my primary running off of the 1660ti, while the laptop itself becomes my secondary running off integrated graphics. For me, everything was simple plug and play with display port.
