What i found out after trying several cables...
The HDMI Port of the Mainboard seems to behave strange (loose/bad contact with HDMI cable).
First i removed the I/O panel. Then after pushing the cable with my hand to the side it seems to become a connection and show's a picture. Then after pushing to the other side it seem's the connection is lost. This i tried with several cables - all the same. With my old intel board i did not have such problems.
As this board is the second one because it was already changed once from the online-shop it seems that this might be a common problem.
Having the I/O shield installed seems also to be a problem for me because this forces the HDMI-Cable into a position which causes the cable to have a bad or no connection at all.
Maybe someone can verify this.
This problem really drives me crazy. I am thinking about buying a DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter ...
