It's the DVI-D connector on: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/H87IPLUS/

However, it is logically detected as HDMI-0:

$ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 320, current 2560 x 1440, maximum 32767 x 32767
VGA-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
HDMI-0 connected primary 2560x1440+0+0 (normal left inverted right x
axis y axis) 600mm x 340mm
   2560x1440      60.0*+
   1920x1200      59.9
   1920x1080      60.0
   1600x1200      59.9
   1680x1050      59.9
   1280x1024      74.9     59.9
   1280x800       59.8
   1152x864       74.8
   1024x768       74.9     59.9
   800x600        74.9     60.3
   640x480        74.8     59.4
   720x400        69.8
HDMI-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

Using the mobo HDMI socket and a HDMI to dual-link DVI-D cable
(logically detected as HDMI-1), the same patch causes the same issue.

Thanks,
