I've been having more luck with the newer 4.7 and 4.8 kernels, and using a 4k monitor on the integrated DP connector mostly works okay at 60Hz.
Haven't really noticed any difference in stability with the xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf settings in https://github.com/linuxenko /ubuntu-skylake-i915-video-fix. I also tried with `Option "DRI" "false"`.
