Pavilion Gaming 16 with NVidia RTX 2060 Max Q. The official specs says, SuperSpeed Type-C 5Gbps, DisplayPort 1.4. Which max. resolution/frame rate it supports then, and what do I need for it?
DisplayPort 1.4 means, 4K/60Hz should be possible. I've connected it to a 32" monitor via Type-C/Type-C cable and I've got 4K/30Hz only. Is it the real maximum, or should I buy Type-C/DisplayPort cable certified for 4K/60Hz (and lose USB functionality then)?
Is it able to output 5K/60Hz? 8K/30Hz? Both values are possible for DP 1.4.
Thanks in advance!

I've reached the HP customer support. They claim, 4K/60Hz is supported via Type-C. But they totally failed to tell me the max. supported resolution, meaning their answer costs nothing.
Their suggestion was to buy a "proper" Type-C cable from a HP dealer that does not have Type-C cables in their shop 🙂
Such kind of support is quite disappointing 😞
