Did you plug the display into the back of the graphics card?

If I take off the gpu it starts up normal.. Video and everything

Boot off of integrated graphics, go into the bios, and make sure PCIe / External graphics is enabled.

Ensure your screen is on the correct input. Do it manually even it if it is, sometimes they don't switch properly or wake up right.
