No, I only use one output and that is DP. But I have been testing between HDMI/DP.
Unfortunately I cannot use D-DVI as the Dell S2716DG only has HDMI & DP. And I only have one monitor to test on hand.

I will try this a bit later, thanks.

This has always been on AUTO for obvious reasons. There really should be an ON to force Full HD...

I was testing as below (under Chipset config menu)
- If 980Ti - PCI as default and Onboard as disabled
Tested using HDMI and DP. Only difference is HDMI cannot handle 144hz (desktop) unlike DP. Both still low res when UEFI when booting.
- If iGPU - PCI express not chosen (forgot other option name) and Onboard is enabled
Anything else that I need to change?

Yes unfortunately since I have installed it, it has never been displayed in Full HD. I also have only used one cable (DP) due to the 144hz capability.
I am just frustrated as mentioned, it worked on an MSI Z170 using the same hardware, same cables but this ASRock board just isn't playing ball.
