Steps For Checking HBR2 or HBR3 Compatibility

 

The following steps can be used to find out if your processor has HBR2 or HBR3 compatibility.

Note: Tiger Lake (11th generation mobile processors) and newer should support HBR3 but to ensure this, follow the below steps for the HBR3 supportability.
Note:
  • HBR2 supports a DisplayPort Max Resolution of 4096 x 2304 @ 60 Hz
  • HBR3 supports a DisplayPort Max Resolution of 7680 x 4320 @ 60 Hz
  1. Go to Intel SearchThis hyperlink is taking you to a website outside of Dell Technologies..
  2. Search for the processor model that is installed in your computer (example: i5 12,600 K) and select the first search result.
  3. Locate the "Processor Graphics" and "Max Resolution DP" information (Figure 1 and 2).
