PC Won't post with a Graphics Card (Functioning GPU)

So recently I tried to resurrect an old system that didn't post with a GPU. Thinking it was an unstable PSU issue I ended up buying a new PSU. Still the machine doesn't post when a GPU is installed.

It boots up normally with Onboard Graphics. I tested the graphics card and it works fine in my other system...

Idk what's wrong here maybe the PCI slot is damaged? I only have one PCIe slot so can't verify if it's damaged...

I also researched a bit and found out that if a processor is damaged (bent pins) this can be a processor issue.

But since the system boots up normally with Onboard  graphics and fits in well in the CPU Socket I don't think it's a damaged processor.

SEND HELP!

Full system specs

AMD Fx8320 stock @3.5Ghz

Nvidia Gtx1060 6Gb

8gb ddr3 Ram

550w Cooler Master MWE 80+

4x 120mm cooling fans

Bad slot is a reasonable assumption.

 

I assume your motherboard has integrated graphics that you're using? No FX CPU ever had an iGPU.

What is your BIOS configured to use as the primary GPU?
