Hello, so I am trying to do stuff with my PC for the first time but when I plug my HDMI cord into my graphics port it won't load. I plug it into the motherboard one and it does. So this makes me assume it's onboard graphics.

TL;DR How do I disable onboard graphics on a GIGABYTE motherboard
 
Solution
Try removing it from the 1st PCie slot and installing it in the 2nd one. If still the same, try clearing the CMOS (unplug the power cord and remove the CMOS battery for a minute).

Gigabyte GA-Z97X-Gaming 5 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
MSI Radeon R9 390 8GB Video Card

The graphics card lights power up and the fans work on it

I have both PCI-E cables connected to both of the inputs which are connected to the PSU what's not connected?
