So this is the first rig I've ever built, and when I turn it on it runs and everything lights up and my stepdad has built computers and tells me everything is doing what it should be doing inside. HOWEVER. I have not gotten the video card yet, that is the last part I need but we wanted to see if it could boot and run with the on-board graphics. Could that be it? Do I need my video card?

My problem is it's not displaying on my Asus monitor, I tried VGA, DVI and HDMI and I get no signal, and the monitor goes into stand-by mode after like three seconds each time I try.
Help?
