I've recently installed Linux Mint on my Asus Vivobook.
I have an Nvidia MX 350 card that I've had some issues installing. I've been able to make it work by installing the Nvidia 450 drivers as described here: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=350438
However, I'm unable to connect external monitors via HDMI or usb-c ports I have.
