I know this is a long shot since is an older motherboard, but maybe there is a way to fix this.
 
The motherboard cant see ATI GPU's, got an R7 265 and when I try it, I get "no signal" on the monitors, what I tried so far was:
set northbridge from auto to 2nd gen processors (i5 2400), tried different PSU, tried 2 different ram kits (4 and 16 gb), re-flash the bios to 1.10 which is the only version available, all tests without any success.
 
When I tried 2 different gpu's (650ti and 750) both worked fine, since I don't have other ATI card, I tested the R7 265 on 2 different PC's and there it work fine.

Any time you add or change a piece of hardware like a video card, you should clear the UEFI/BIOS before you start the PC with the new video card. Did you try that with the ATI video card?

Question for you, what video driver did you have installed when you tried to use the ATI card? You mentioned two different Nvidia based video cards, whose driver is not compatible with the ATI card. Did you uninstall the Nvidia video card driver before trying to use the ATI video card?

Were the other two PCs you tested the R7 275 on that worked with it, significantly newer than your H61 board?

ASRock had a large number of H61 mother board models, and most of the ones I checked did not have many if any UEFI/BIOS updates. Your board has downloads for Windows 10, so I would think an R7 275 video card, which is not a just released card, would work in your board.

Old drivers ware uninstalled before switching cards, also I cleared the CMOS (removed batter, jumper reset).
 
The PC's I tried the GPU, one was way older (sk 775) and on this one the GPU worked from the start, the second PC was an 1155 (I guess around same age of release date) but the card it didn't work on it either, but once I updated the BIOS to a newer version, the card did work after. This is why I think must be a BIOS related issue to the H61 board.
 
Also the GPU in term of age is ~1 year newer as release date, then the H61 board.
