It allows 5K monitors? Does that mean it's HDMI 2.0 or DisplayPort 1.3? Both?

  Support for up to 5120 by 2160 resolution at 60Hz on a single external display (model with AMD Radeon R9 M370X only)

is listed under "Thunderbolt digital video output" & HDMI max output is

  Support for 4096-by-2160 resolution at 24Hz.

So it must be DP 1.3?

Nope - it's two mini-DP cables
