motherboard HMDI and DVI not working

[GodMikesBeats]

Hi everyone,

So I recently built my friend a new computer which consists of:

CPU:Ryzen 5 1600X
mobo:Asus Prime b-350 PLUS
GPU: Gainward GTX 970 Phantom 4GB
(Tell me if you want the other parts..if required)

On my PC i am capable of using dual monitor (monitor1 - dvi - gpu and monitor2 -hdmi - gpu). But since his GPU only has 1x DVI, 1x mini HDMI and etc, I am pretty much forced to go, monitor1 is plugged to GPU via DVI, and now here comes the problem, I plug my monitor2 into the motherboard via hdmi but nothing is displayed, i even tried plugging monitor1 into the motherboard via DVI but it didnt display anything either.

Is there something i need to do in the BIOS to allow the motherboard's HDMI and DVI to work?

The motherboard display outputs need an APU to function, there is no graphics core in a 1600x

Motherboard video outputs only function if the CPU has a built-in graphics processor, which the R5 1600X does not have.

In other words you need a GPU
