A week ago on Friday I built my PC, bought all the parts and it ran perfectly, no hiccups or anything noticable. Anyhow I updated my bios a few days ago and booted it up, played games and what not, worked fine until this morning. (Bear in mine each time I boot the graphics card fans spin at what sounds to be the fastest they can.)
PC Specs:
Gigabyte AB350M Gaming-3 mobo
550w Corsair PSU
8gb 3000mhz Corsair Vengence RAM
Ryzen 5 1400 quad core
3gb Asus GTX 1060 OC
There is a video here of the boot up, for a visual look at what is happening.

I boot up my PC and the gigabyte screen usually is black, but is now blood red with white text and logo, exactly the same with the windows startup, after a few seconds on windows startup the screen goes black. I enter safe mode on the next boot and get into my PC, still red load up but now I have a red overlay on my desktop, I uninstall my graphics driver as that is what I thought it would be, restarted, no fix but this time I booted into windows. After a couple of minutes the screen goes black, still have HDMI signal but screen is black, can't see mouse pointer either and the graphics card fans stop spinning but the PC is still on.
You can see that my graphics card isn't being picked up for some reason now the last first time when I turned on my PC, the graphics card was being detected but screen was still red.
My only theory is that the graphics card is dead, or faulty, if that's the case then it shouldn't be hard getting a refund as it hasn't been 2 weeks scince receiving the item.
If anyone has had an issue like this or this exact one and have overcome it, please give me some advice as I spent alot on this right, Thanks.
EDIT/UPDATE:
I have now tried a different graphics card, the problem persists, I try a hdd with a clean windows on, the problem persists. I have not tired to slot any graphics card into a different PCie slot because the graphics card would then cover up some connections on the mobo that are needed.
If the issue is not the mother board then I'm stuck, I'm pretty sure it might be, but how could this have happened, I dont understand.
Thanks again.
