Functionality
Designed for Surface

Dynamic video support
Supports minimum resolution 4K at 30Hz with one display, 1080p at 60Hz with two displays, and 1,600 x 900 at 60Hz with three displays when connected to a DP1.2/HBR2 device, and maximum resolution 4K at 60Hz with one display, 4K at 60Hz with two displays and 4K at 60Hz with three displays when connected to a DP1.4 HBR3 device.
