You could try the GFX card in the other PCI-e slot. I assume you have it in slot 1 currently? That motherboard does NOT have what we refer to as "onboard" Graphics. This means it will not have a connection to a monitor natively. You HAVE to use the graphics card (the 5770 you have bought) to output to a monitor. Is it possible you have not set the monitor to pick up the digital (DVI) signal or vice versa with VGA analogue? You should try setting the monitor to different inputs manually incase it is not auto detecting it correctly.
