I need a laptop for work purposes, which will be connected to a docking station with two monitors. I am wondering what specs would be enough for this. I am finding alot of laptops with an i5-4200u CPU and integrated GPU. would this be fast enough for my situation, or should i go for something like an i7?

I am also wondering how much load two external monitors will cause on the laptop, compared to the internal monitor alone? Thanks alot!
