Can i connect an External monitor on Inspiron 7567 Laptop??

Hi,

I am just about to make a purchase on the Dell Inspiron 15 7000 Gaming (7567). I would like to use this with external monitors via the HDMI port (and leave the laptop CLOSED). I have seen that some people have experienced issues with this: 

-lag/stuttering on the external monitor

-black screen on the external monitor

-video drivers crashing

Has anyone else hooked up external monitors via the HDMI port? Have you experienced these types of issues?

It would inform my decision to buy or not.

Thank you,
