Dell XPS 9360

QHD+ Screen
Intel 620 Graphics
16GB RAM
512GB SSD - Samsung PM961 / 68V6F
Dell bios 2.6.2
I've configured my BIOS settings as recommended, and made extra changes for DVMT as such:
CFG Lock - Disabled 0x4de - 0x00
DVMT Pre-allocation - 0x785 - 0x03 (64M. 96 and 128 were not options when I extracted my bios)
DVMT Total Gfx Memory - 0x786 - 0x03 (MAX)
I do not have any NVME kexts in place, it's not clear to me that I need any with this part #? From what I have read, I would have needed a kext just to reach the installer in the first place if it was required.
High Sierra installer loads and allows me to get through to installation of files screen. Works for about 5 minutes and then either freezes or reboots with "2 minutes remaining" on the screen.
I have used RehabMan's 620 config.plist from the repo. I have done the same steps with an invalid ig-platform, and although the screen resolution is high and everything is tiny (as expected), the same freeze/reboot occurs.
