Ok so this may be a stupid question but I just don't want to make any mistakes in my up coming build. I have an AMD FX 4300 cpu paired with a MSI 970A-G43 AM3+ Motherboard. Now both of these do not have any sort of integrated graphics at all. So will they be able to even show a display or anything? Now I will be getting a dedicated Graphics card later but I just want to be able to get the build up and running first. So will my computer work with just the cpu and mobo?

There are no ports with which to connect a display, aside from a USB display.
I've never tried it, but I don't think you could get any display, not even a command line display.
As for getting to something like a Windows start screen, without a GPU, short answer, you can't.
