So switched to PEGP and now I get nothing out of the IGPU output.

When configured correctly, you are not supposed to get output from the IGPU.

Ok so then I assume to go back to using the external card again?

Don't you have a GTX 980 Ti installed?

Yes, back to that now, I had just switched from it before to make sure it wasnt adding to the issue.

Alright, back in again, now when I select the USB drive it just freezes and still says 'Ad'. Hard-reboot to get back to BIOS again or if I let it just boot instead of going to BIOS it will get to that black/blank screen.

Do you have BIOS set for "Other OS"?

Yes I do, my BIOS matches the first post on this thread exactly.

@Stork @pastrychef I just redid the USB drive again on a different mac with high sierra, completed successfully, and same results. Not sure what else to check or try.

@Stork @pastrychef Noticed something else that is odd. I downloaded 3802 off ASUS site as I am running 3801. Tried to update it and it says the M8H.CAP file is not a proper BIOS inside the EZ Flash tool. If I do it via Flashback nothing happens. Lastly I went into BIOS and tried ASUS EZ Flash 3 Utility v03.00 again and this time via Internet and it says I have the latest BIOS.

You can see what version of BIOS you are on from the BIOS itself.

Please post your EFI folder.
