Question How does it work: HP Elite x2 1013 G3

[Marco_on_the_Grassland]

HP Elite x2 1013 G3 is a 2-in-1 slate computer and has two resolution models: 3,000 * 2,000 (UHD) & 1,920 * 1,080 (FHD).
ANY model however has only a 30-pin eDP output (to LCD) on its mainboard.
My understanding is it requires 40-pin connection for resolutions higher than FHD (more than two lanes).
Is my understanding wrong?

Those resos are only with specific displays.

So, based on that, you can either keep using the 3000x2000 main screen with it. Or buy and configure HP sure view integrated privacy screen, which runs at 1920x1080.

I know, I know for each res each (different) display model...sorry if I wrote something misunderstood.

My question is just if 3,000 * 2,000 res is possible via 30-pin eDP, because my understanding is it requires 40-pin connection for resolutions higher than FHD (more than two lanes).

The bandwidth out of each DP lane depends on the version. For older, slower versions, you just add more lanes for more bandwidth.
