Also, I believe that motherboard has integrated graphics so you could try disconnecting the display cable from your GPU and connecting it to the motherboard. If everything works fine it's totally the GPU that you need to change. GTX 960 would be a solid choice in that case.

Try switching back to integrated graphics to see if you get the signal. If you do, then quickly go to BIOS and see what your primary video source is. Switch it to PCIe, save, and turn off your computer. Then install the 960 and see if it helps.
