HP USB-C Dock G5 is the exact documented starting option for this ProBook. Its up-to-100 W host delivery covers the laptop's documented 65 W USB-C adapter requirement on paper, but exact charging, firmware and combined display behavior still need confirmation on the actual configuration. For two 4K60 screens, the G5 display table requires the host's DisplayPort 1.4 path and high-resolution mode; three 4K60 screens additionally requires DSC.
HP's current compatible-products page names the ProBook 4 G1i 16-inch, and the laptop's USB-C ports carry power delivery and DisplayPort 1.4.
Check first: Use the dock's attached host cable and correct AC adapter. Confirm firmware and the required high-resolution mode before promising dual or triple 4K60.
The ProBook's documented adapter is 65 W, while Dock G5 publishes up to 100 W host delivery; the figures are compatible as a planning check.
Check first: Published ceilings are not a measurement of the exact desk. If charging is intermittent or limited, verify the dock supply/cable and retest with the original HP charger.
Another dock may work at the interface level, but no second exact-model pairing was established in the reviewed official records.
Check first: Leave the pairing unconfirmed until the manufacturer names this ProBook or documents the complete host, power and display requirements.
Still unknown: HP's compatibility listing and tables do not establish every monitor model, cable, refresh rate, HDR mode, USB load or firmware state on this exact ProBook. The reviewed sources do not establish a second exact-model dock pairing.

Manufacturer guidance. This is a shortlist, not a test of your complete desk.
| Check | For this setup |
|---|---|
| Computer cable | The attached G5 USB-C cable goes to the laptop’s video-capable USB-C port. |
| Screen cables | Use rear HDMI or DisplayPort. The front USB-C socket is for data and 15 W accessory power, not a monitor. |
| Two Full HD screens | Listed in every G5 bandwidth column, assuming the host supports the display count. Confirm the exact laptop configuration and OS. |
| Two 4K60 screens | Require DP 1.3/1.4 in high-resolution mode, or DP 1.4 with DSC in the default mode. A USB-C socket alone establishes neither. |
| Three 4K60 screens | Only listed with DP 1.4 DSC in high-resolution mode; all three rear video outputs are used. |
| Power | Up to 100 W to supported HP hosts. A workstation requiring more needs separate supported power. |
