I just installed my motherboard the other day and when I plugged in my monitor to the HDMI port form the motherboard, my monitor did not turn on. I plugged it into the GPU and it worked.
Specs:
MSI X370 Gaming plaug Motherboard
Ryzen 5 1500x
MSI 1060 6gb GPU
HyperX Fury 8Gb (2x4gb) DDR4 2400 Mhz RAM

Wondering if I am not able to support a monitor from the motherboard or if I missed something when I was installing my software.

Your MSI 1060 has multiple ports. HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI.

Alright, I'll buy a Display port to HDMI cable. Thank you.
