I knew that the Monitor and the Cable could be the cause of thoose artefacts, but i din't know the card itself (especially a Newer card), could be the cause of these kind of troubles.

I've heard several reports about some 900-series cards having lower-quality DVI ports than older cards. I don't know if that applies to all 900-series cards or if that depends on the manufacturer, but there's nothing you can do other than try another card.

When using displayport, does it go through the RAMDAC? (I guess not since the max resolution on displayport is 5120x3200x60Hz)

DVI and DisplayPort don't use the RAMDAC. The RAMDAC is for VGA only. The driver was applying the RAMDAC limit to DVI with older cards, but that doesn't affect 600-series and newer cards, and the patch gets around that for 400/500-series cards. SLI has a separate limit which also happens to be 400 MHz, but that doesn't apply to the Titan, GTX 780, and 900-series cards, and the patch gets around that for older cards.

No.

You don't need the patch with the 980 Ti if you use the NVIDIA control panel to add custom resolutions. You only need the patch if you're using CRU, and the 980 Ti doesn't need the full patch for SLI.
