I recently bought a reference HD 7870 (because its cheap). First, I uninstalled the graphics driver of the iGPU using DDU Driver Uninstaller. After the old driver was uninstalled, I shut down my pc and plug in the new gpu. I ensured all power connections (2x6-pin) are connected properly. I use DVI-I to VGA adapter (the gpu has one DVI-I port) because I only have VGA cable. My monitor (Orion G1712) has one VGA and one DVI-I port. I connected the VGA cable with DVI-I to VGA adapter to the graphics card. I power the pc up but there is no display. I remove the gpu and reset the CMOS and I transfer the VGA to the mobo's VGA port (iGPU) and it has a display. What seems to be the problem?
Specs:

Kingston 8gb ddr3 1333mhz
Hitachi 500gb
Corsair VS 450
Windows 10 64-bit
-Is there any settings I need to change in the BIOS?
Edit: I tried setting NB PCIe slot video as default and set integrated graphics to disabled but still not working.
-I suspect its the DVI-I to VGA adpater. I never tried to test the adapter to my monitor (because the adapter and vga is too tight to fit in my monitor, my monitor has a bad design ) and other monitor (because I only have one monitor). So I want to try DVI cable. But what DVI cable should I use? The DVI-I or DVI-D?
Edit: I used DVI-D cable and it won't work.
-I didn't tested yet the gpu to other system.
