Just for the archives: the problem turned out to be the DisplayPort cable still being plugged in. Once I pulled that out, I had normal video over DVI. Perhaps my monitor got confused. DisplayPort had been acting up in Windows to begin with. After I built the PC, it worked normally for quite a while, but at some it stopped working in Windows (only in Windows), so I had to fall back to DVI which, on Intel Graphics, means 30 fps. The Windows AMD software tells me that it can't establish a link. Perhaps the cable is at fault. -- Gruß | Greetings | Qapla’ Please do not share anything from, with or about me with any social network.
