Yes, I'm running a Nvidia 980ti on mine.

I've had a decent amount of weird behavior as well, all of which seems
to come from substandard or too long of cables. Once I used a high
quality cable that was much shorter my setup has been rock stable.

From what I have found it's all down to the loss of edid when the TV
goes off where computer monitors will continue to report that they are
connected even while off.
I've recently purchased a higher end HDMI splitter that will supposedly
cache edid information. I've yet to hook it up to find out of it will
work in reality. If it does, it will completely fix the problem.
