The same kinda thing happened to my friend's PC, he bought a new graphics card but when he replaced the old one the monitor wouldn't work anymore. He couldn't figure it out, so he put the old graphic's card back and the monitor worked again. I know this isn't helpful but he found out that the card just had a random flaw and wouldn't work for some reason.

well it's from my PC so it does work, unless he broke it on the way home
Any beeping you can compare against codes?
What's the card, and what's your PSU?
im guessing power supply
does the video card have dedicated power cords that it needs?
if i remember correctly the card is a 4770 with one pci-e slot needed, it runs fine on my 500W and PB has a 800?W
i have a 700W supply, i havent broken it because the fan spins up... i need to get a case speaker off of my old PC at my dad's house and plug it in to see if anything happens.
there is also an issue, if the BIOS is out of date the stepping on this CPU is not compatible with it, making the CPU incompatible. would that lead to a complete failure to boot?
there actualy seem to be a quite a few horror stories of people with your board quite similar
Have you attempted to RMA it and see if you can get a different one, since changing the BIOS chip will invalidate the warranty
