far as i can tell you may be the first one to try that card with
openSUSE, you might find some hint here, i don’t know:

if not you might need to file bug report…that seems to be pretty
rare hardware around here…

Thanks

I have been searching all day but have found no answer. Its funny when OpenSUSE starts it shows in full screen then loads into small screen with black borders

try turning off desktop effects…
