[UPDATE]
Okay, lets start with "I think I made some progress today". I have been playing around with Sierra and El Capitan over the past week trying to understand how El Capitan could run the MSI N460GTC Cyclone 1GD5 but Sierra couldn't. The solution was that this graphics card doesn't need web drivers and I shouldn't have been trying to install them. Graphics at this point work 100%. I only installed the latest Cuda drivers which I think helps. Im not sure if they do or don't.
My current clover settings are as follow
SMBios: iMac 14.2
Inject Nvidia
After installation I ran MultiBeast and selected the following:
Drivers >
Misc - FakeSMC
Network - RealtekRT8111 v2.2.1
Bootloaders >
Clover v2.3k r3766 LBM
Customize >
Graphics Config - Inject NVIDIA
System Definitions - The following worked fine for me either Mac Pro 5,1 or 14.2 I am sure other will work just fine but I'm happy with this unless a issue happens that I need to change it to resolve.
I also added my DSDT to the EFI that I downloaded from here. I think it works with or without.
Okay how about what isn't working at this point......
USB 3.0 - Vaguely looked into this. Will save this for another long day.
?Sound - Sound is currently working thanks to VooDooHDA. I tried a few different things and this was the only that worked.
Sleep - Haven't looked into yet
Handoff & Continuity - It seems I will need to replace my Rosewill in order to get this to work. Not really important to me.
I am not sure if my USB 3.0 ports are running as 3.0 ports. I haven't looked into that yet. Sound isn't working at all yet. The Realtek RTL892 kext will not work. I managed to get voodoo drivers to work in El Capitan but I haven't went that far yet with Sierra (Searching for a more natural easily updatable solution. Other than that everything is good.

Hey folks,
Managed to get Sierra installed on my P55A-UD3 Rev. 2 F11. Using the USB installer to boot into system, currently the only thing working is ethernet (able to download from App Store and use iMessaging). Currently I am trying to figure out my graphics before conquering anything else. I tried running the Nvidia web install but that failed to load for me. I am also trying to figure out what is the best route for my MSI N460GTX Cyclone 1GD5. Drivers or some kind of DSDT edit?
