Try resetting the CMOS and check you plugged into the GPU and not the mobo. Sounds silly but an easy mistake to make.

Are you using an HDMI cable, DVI-I cable, DVI-D cable, Display Port to connect the monitor?

Also, double check that you didn't select PCI-e 2.0 (compatibility for gtx 560) in the BIOS in case it's conflicting with the cards compatibility. It should be fully backwards compatible but there can be issues with running it in compatibility mode for an older version of PCI-e with a card that supports the newest version.
