Hi, I am trying to connect my laptop to two monitors as an extension to my laptop screen, any ideas how to do it? Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

You have a USB-C port that has a DP 1.2 capability so you can use a USB-C port replicator and two monitors with DP input. I find DP is just more reliable and easier to work with than HDMI for multiple monitors through a dock or port replicator. If you have already got the monitors and they do not have DP (DisplayPort) connectors HDMI or even DVI will likely work with adapters or if the replicator has such ports on it. 

 

This should work with just about any dual monitor setup-DP, HDMI:

Theoretically. I am always a little leery of DP to HDMI converters.
