Need Help With installing and configuring new AMD Radeon RX 560

[devsMac]

Hi all,
I have a very good working nearly perfect hackingtosh. But lately I have decided to use the rig to use it as Media server and more of a secondary Apple machine to do backups of all other devices; along with playing around with unknown open source applications. Anyway, Lately I started using my rig in screen sharing environment more than ever; and the experience was not as fluent. So with inadequate knowledge of different technologies, I thought that my problem was due to an absence of decent graphics card; as before I was only using integrated graphics Intel HD630 which came with my CPU, and I know for sure that my Local network is fast enough. Well, then over the weekend I found an outrageous deal on MSI AMD Radeon RX 560 AERO ITX 4G OC for $125. However, Since the moment I installed it I have not been able to configure it properly, to be able to get any picture on the screen. I have read various threads to get an idea and that just lead me to be overwhelmed with information, where more I read the more I am getting confused; SO I thought rather than trying to be smart ass, I should just bite my ego and present my misery to the forum where I learned the whole concept of Hackintosh. I will really appreciate if anyone can help me out, I am willing to reinstall the entire OS if needed; I just want have as vanilla of a system as possible. Any help in right direction will be greatly appreciated, and my info is updated with correct components.

Hi,
I have been able to get a stable performance with this build, which includes the MSI AMD RX 560 4gb. I have set PCIe as my primary GPU, and IGPU multimonitor ON. I am attaching my EFI folder, so feel free to use whatever info you wish. The only thing I didn't bother with is the USB configuration through clover, because I can do control my USB ports through the ASRock UEFI settings page. Let me know if you need more info.
I am using latest version of High Sierra, and upgrades haven't been any difficult. and I use it mainly through the screen sharing protocol, I have attached a 4K OLED TV attached through the HDMI just for troubleshooting, just in case.
In Geekbench 4.0 benchmark for Metal I get 76402 and Open cl 2.0 = 75800.
