Ok... I notice the Motherboard has its own video outputs on it, Remove the GPU from the computer and plug in your video cables to the Motherboard instead. Report back what happens

In this case MoBo video will be on the ports with VGA or HDMI or DVI-D written on them

Into the top black plug next to the purple/green port, Make sure its the correct way around too

That card doesn't have a port for a VGA cable .  If you have to have a VGA signal (legacy monitor or whatever) you will need some sort of convertor from DVI to VGA

British page but I am sure your country will have similar.

Thought :- Is it wise to have a GPU of that power and use it with a VGA signal?

The card should be in the 2nd slot down from the top in the grey wide one.

Also you may need someone else to help because its getting late so I got to go to bed sorry.

 

Ill say you have not connected the GPU in correctly, The GPUs faulty, The Motherboards faulty. Could be anyone of those.

Hope you find a way to fix it

And my pc won't turn on without the cable connected... Then i mean the pci-e/vga
