Intel HD Graphics will not get best performance.
I have made and tested this EFI on Dell Latitude E5570, but I need a confirmation if this EFI is working on other Dell Skylake E-Series Models.
Bootloader: OpenCore 0.8.4

You have 2 options:
Option 1: Online install. It may take a long time to install. Use this method when you have USB lower than 8GB or you just chill in your free time, lmao 🐸.
Option 2: Offline install. This method requires you have USB larger than 8GB (Recommend 16GB at least).
