Was looking at the spec for the Intel Graphics 615 and it says its has eDP/DP/HDMI/DVI graphics output support.
What it doesn't say is whether or not it supports ALT-Mode DP support via USB-C to HDMI .
I am looking at a Samsung Plus V2 Chromebook that has 2 USB-C outputs. Model # XE520QAB-K02.
Also could you recommend an appropriate cable? USB-C to HDMI ?
DISPLAYPORT OVER USB-C TECHNICAL DETAILS
DisplayPort leverages the Alternate Mode Functional Extension of the USB Type-C interface, and shares similar electrical characteristics with USB 3.1, allowing use of common system elements.

5K (5120 x 2880) display support without compression with simultaneous USB 2.0
Support for BT.2020 color space, HDR, and HDCP 2.2
8K x 4K display support with use of 4:2:0 pixel structure (good) or VESA Display Stream Compression (better)
High-end multichannel audio support

I would like to start by gathering more information of the system you have, please provide me with an System Support Utility report, please refer to the link below in order to download the tool:

Also, please provide me with a DxDiag report:

Well DAVE.....(get it? From 2001: A Space Odyssey ? hahahah)
anyway I can't do that because I haven't purchased the Chromebook yet. It was a pre-sale technical inquiry, to help me determine if I should buy it or not.
I also have a samsung ultrabook 2 in 1 that intel UHD 620 graphics. Later I will send the requested info for that, as I would like to know if it too supports dp alt-mode.

i obviously cannot run dxdiag or ssu on a chromebook. They only work on a windows OS.

For a Chromebook, you should check with the manufacturer to discuss their implementation/integration limitations.

Hello TDean,
Thank you for your response.
Al.Hill is correct, while our graphics adapter may not have a limitation for the use of Alt-mode DP, the way the system was manufactured and set up could present a limitation so in this case the best way to find the required information is to contact the system manufacturers.
