Having issues with a Powercolor 7770 Ghz. Edition

[skemble10]

I'm doing a PC build with:

CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 640
MOBO: GIGABYTE GA-970A-DS3 R3.0
RAM: 4Gb G.Skill
GPU: Powercolor 7770 Ghz Ed.
PSU: Corsair 430W

I've completed the out of case build and hooked it up to several different monitors with HDMI, VGA, DVI ports. All the fans are spinning, but I can't seem to get anything to show up on screen. I've read something about doing a bios update to allow for that certain card, but am confused on how this is to be done since I can't see anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

*this isn't my first build*

The display cables are connected to the graphics card and not the mobo, right? Did you just get this card?

There are no display ports on the mobo to connect to, but no I have everything connected properly. I had a MSI GTX 660 laying around and popped it in. Got a post right away. Figured the card was dead..
