Configuration for getting macOS Catalina to run on a Razer Blade 17 Pro 2020 using OpenCore 0.6.4-dev

Introduction

If you would like to get started with creating a Hackintosh on your Razer Blade but have no experience, I would highly reccomend following Dortania's fantastic Opencore Install guide and then returning here for troubleshooting.

Pre-Install

Razer has locked the BIOS tight this time, so you'll need a hardware programmer to unlock DVMT Options this time around. Follow the instructions on https://git.io/JkuFs for how to mod your BIOS for this. After modding the BIOS, change DVMT Pre Alloc to 64MB, DVMT Max Alloc to MAX. Also if you've selected "Dedicated GPU Only" Graphics mode, you'll need to put it back in "NVIDIA (R) Optimus" along with Disabling Secure boot.
