Ok then, So now we know that its not currently going to work:(. that was 
a disappointment as I did some research to make sure that both the 
computer and monitor would work as booth intel and dell claim 4k 60Hz on 
dp1.2.

clearly the monitor is never going to support HBR2 since they say MST 
must be used so it's probably a hardware limitation.

Now the question is  is it possible to make the i7 4770R chip(I guess 
its another chip doing the displayport  stuff the cpu is only the gfx 
accellerator right) support MST and DisplayID . And if so what is needed 
in the driver to make that happen.
