Why this setup passes
DeskCheck already verifies the Dell Pro Max 16 MC16250 and WD22TB4 combination for dual external 4K displays.
Dell's WD22TB4 documentation explicitly lists two-display 4K 60 Hz configurations using supported DisplayPort, HDMI, MFDP USB-C and Thunderbolt output combinations. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
ASUS separately documents the PA32UCR-K at 3840×2160 with a maximum refresh rate of 60 Hz, together with DisplayPort 1.2, HDMI 2.0 and USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode inputs. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
What you need
- Dell Pro Max 16 MC16250.
- Dell Thunderbolt Dock WD22TB4.
- Two ASUS ProArt PA32UCR-K monitors.
- DisplayPort or HDMI cables capable of 4K 60 Hz.
- The WD22TB4 connected to the Dell laptop through its supported Thunderbolt host connection.
PA32UCR-K features relevant to this setup
ASUS also documents 99.5% Adobe RGB, 98% DCI-P3, 100% sRGB and 10-bit color support, which is why this monitor is positioned toward professional creative workflows rather than basic office use. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
Can you use USB-C instead?
Yes, the PA32UCR-K includes USB-C with DisplayPort Alt Mode and up to 80W power delivery. ASUS documents the monitor itself at a maximum refresh rate of 60 Hz. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
For this particular dual-monitor dock guide, DeskCheck keeps the recommended layout simple by using the WD22TB4's native DisplayPort or HDMI outputs rather than depending on a more complicated USB-C routing path.
Important limitations
- This PASS applies specifically to the Dell Pro Max 16 MC16250, WD22TB4 and two PA32UCR-K monitors at 4K 60 Hz.
- PASS does not imply that every laptop connected to the WD22TB4 supports the same dual-monitor configuration.
- Monitor cables and adapters still need to support the requested resolution and refresh rate.
- DeskCheck recommends straightforward DisplayPort or HDMI connections for this particular setup.
- HDR, color calibration and other professional monitor features are separate from basic 4K60 compatibility.
- PASS reflects documented pre-purchase compatibility. It does not guarantee against defective hardware, cable problems, firmware faults or operating-system issues.
