Yes, it is. For 1080@30hz gaming, it'll be sufficient. As far as running two monitors, you won't be using the second for gaming and thus it'll only play on one screen.

 

Why not go with an i5-6600K and a 1060 6GB.

Highly doubt you will be able to game on no gpu, unless the games are on low settings and or are not intensive with graphics ( minecraft, gmod)

Depends on your definition of "gaming". You will probably be playing on low to medium settings depending on the game.

I think you would be totally fine, I tried gmod, tf2 and csgo a while ago a mac for a test (not my macbook air) and they ran fine.

Minimum settings would only be required for intensive games like GTA5 or whatever.

You can play minecraft maxed out on integrated graphics and still get over 60fps.

I think you underestimate how powerful intel iGPUs are.

Check some of the integrated graphics benchmark of HD 530. Seems fine for demanding games to run at medium - low with 30fps.
