Windows 7 on the pure UEFI may help
You can view which resources (memory and I/O ports) are assigned to PCI-E devices in your system using Linux command "lspci -vv | less"
here is a way to change your VGA_ROM_ADDRESS (have not tested this)
Edit: UefiSeven (in my experience) is "happier" with intel motherboard chipsets
on my GA-A320M-H board (CSM disabled), both graphics cards, a Radeon HD 8490 & a GeForce GTX 1050 fail to unlock memory
same cards on an Asrock J3355M board (CSM disabled), do unlock but are also stuck on the win logo dimming up & down. VNC Remote access is not possible, but pushing the power switch does shutdown the system normally. (force_fakevesa=1 did not help either)
to my surprise, on the Asrock J3355M board, Flashboot Pro, has the exact same behavior, symptoms to that of UefiSeven

enabling CSM & booting in UEFI without either UefiSeven or Flashboot Pro works fine on the Asrock J3355M
Finally, I was able to use UefiSeven on an Asus PRIME N100I-D D4-CSM board (CSM disabled). for some reason I was able to succeed this only with the help of refindPlus
in ALL motherboards, I flash the latest available bios
so after all, UefiSeven is NOT that bad. the basic thing, still missing, is adjusting the gop resolution by hand as an option in the .ini file
possibly poking around these lines, but the code is based on a quite old EDK II project
