I really love using OpenCore Auxiliary Tools, so I wrote a little introductory guide
Does this guide solely focus on a bare metal install, or can I apply it to Hackintosh in virtual machines too? Used bare-metal for a few years but I’ve been trying to get a personalized kvm/OC config for my Monterey & Big Sur guests in proxmox 7. Both macOS versions boot and are decent but I do wish a host-setup like; https://github.com/johncolby/macOS-KVM. Instead of the more general approach; https://github.com/thenickdude/KVM-Opencore, https://github.com/Leoyzen/KVM-Opencore . Not to discredit either of them, I wouldn’t have a booting macOS without their guidance, but I’d like to tinker with it a bit further
- Anyone got any good guides for making a VM work on AMD hardware?

Consider VFIO for Hackintosh
You can look at this resource - https://github.com/johncolby/macOS-KVM. He links a couple of other guides- you should start with them first.

Mini-ITX build questions
I went with a different case, AMD mini-ITX motherboard, and KVM VM rather than bare metal hackintosh, but if you want to check out my setup it is here: https://github.com/johncolby/macOS-KVM https://pcpartpicker.com/b/ZGn7YJ

Desktop with loads of computing power
To keep costs down, Keep an eye on local market place and classified sites for a cheapish gaming PC with an AMD card in it (RX’s 5700 / 5700xt / 5600xt / 6600xt / 6600). Look up the parts here on Reddit and https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/ to see if people have problems or methods needed to make them work.
- Most hackintoshible laptop with a good GPU?
