Hi Guys
For four days, I'm trying to fix the "NO GPU Detected" issue on macOS High sierra.
I installed the Nvidia drivers as well as the CUDA drivers. But still no luck.
I think it's something to do with the OpenCore Config.plist.
Tried reading the Dotania Install Guide completely, still not sure how to fix this issue.

In the "About this Mac" its shows Graphics 7MB. Shows "No GPU Detected" in Nvidia Preferences

I've attached my config. Please see my build in the signature.
Please Help

As you are using an Nvidia GTX 960 GPU you need to be using the Nvidia Web Drivers.

SecureBootModel needs to be disabled for the Nvidia Web Drivers to work with OpenCore.

There is also a boot argument that is required, for the Nvidia Web Drivers to work.

Can't recall if any other settings are Nvidia specific.

These settings are from the latest Dortania Guide for a Haswell Desktop system.

You have the SecureBootModel setting correctly applied, but for some reason you have added these boot arguments - -v alcid=1 watchdog=0 agdpmod=pikera.

The last one is very wrong and should be swapped for the Nvidia boot argument highlighted in the screenshot above.
