Since the screen on my new build does not display I am left to assume I need to return my motherboard since I have went through the checklist on this website a few times. I figured before I went through the trouble of returning the board I could get a GPU for 50 dollars or less suck as a GeForce 8400 GS and test that to see if it is my graphics card. Would it be possible to use a GPU like that in my build with everything else easily bottlenecking it. My Build is:
MSI 970 gaming Motherboard
AMD 8350 Black Edition
GTX 770
CX600 Power supply
Corsair Vengaence 2x4 RAM
My memory is 250GB SSD, 1TB HDD WD Blue, 1tb Seagate SSHD.

It boots, everything powers up including the audio boost light on the motherboard but my monitor just says "No Display".

I have not had the best experiances ordering parts from amazon since you do not really know who you are ordering from. Is newegg a better option or possibly NCIX? I am looking for 2 fast shipping.
