Sleep as in dpms off ($ xset dpms force off) or sleep as in system
suspend?

Hm, doesn't ring a bell here. Adding Paulo, our residential hsw display
expert.

Aside hsw hdmi ports support 300MHz dotclocks, but still only single-link.
So I guess your dvi screen is still out of luck since it likely wants a
dual-link dvi signal. But if you have a hdmi port it should work a bit
better (hdmi pumped up the max dotclock a bit already a while ago ...).
