That is a terrible problem, since it is so strange. I wish I knew why it is happening.
Has the PC/mother board and CPU done this from the first time you used it? Or did it start randomly one day?
If this behavior started recently, try to think back to when it started. Was something done to the PC that was different, a change of some kind? New Intel video driver installation? New BIOS version?
Did you install the Intel video driver yourself? Or did you use the built in Windows video driver, or whatever was installed by Windows update?
What version of Windows do you use?
What model of monitor are you using, and what is its standard resolution?
I would try the following:
Download and install the Intel video driver again. The video driver in the link below contains several fixes that may include the problem you are having. This driver is designed for use with your CPU. Be sure to download the correct version:

Try a different HDMI cable. Is the cable you are using now an HDMI to HDMI cable? No adapters used to connect it to the monitor?
Your board has two HDMI outputs. One of them (HDMI2) has a higher refresh rate at Ultra HD resolution. Regardless, try using the other HDMI port.
Try another monitor or TV as you said you would. Try the monitor you see the problem with on another PC, to verify it is working correctly on the HDMI input.
If you have a DisplayPort cable, and the monitor can accept a DisplayPort cable, try that.
