I finally got to the bottom of why QE/CI (Graphics Acceleration) gets disabled after wake from sleep (courtesy of the hackintosh tutorial posted by Vorke V8 on YT)
The issue is that this system is missing IMEI (Intel's Management Interface) And macOS needs it for QE/CI. Why it works in the first place without IMEI is anybody's guess but it is what causes the sleep wake app freezes.
A potential solution seems to be flashing an updated BIOS with Intel ME supported or doing some BIOS hacking to restore the ME region within the BIOS. [Since chances of bricking the whole system is very high here, I'm going to do a LOT of additional research before even attempting anything like this]
Just thought I'd post here if it would be helpful for anybody else wondering the same thing!
So much for trying to let it go and not use sleep wake haha
