Mobo and then video card should recognize monitor if its up to date drivers or you don't need monitor drivers since they may not be written well and cause problems later, I never install monitor anything.

Always install the motherboard chipset drivers first, makes everything else quicker when you install it.

I usually do video next so I can see what im doing better.

After that, sound, LAN, USB and then anything else.

Like Rangeral said, the video card, when installed, will pick up tour monitor. I only change the monitor installed if it is picked up wrong and I know it.
