Help With x58 High Sierra Build

I have successfully installed Catalina on my PC but it runs very laggy due to issues with video card drivers. So I'm moving to High Sierra so I can use my GTX1050TI card. It just hangs for hours and hours. I've tried re-downloading a clean copy of High Sierra but no dice. I've tried following the Vanilla Guide in this subreddit but I suppose I'm missing something either in the actual process or my hardware is too weird.

Clover Boot Manager loads. I select Boot macOS Install from Install macOS High Sierra. I get to a black screen with a white apple logo. The loading bar appears, fills all the way, and then my PC reboots.

My build:

cpu: Xeon E5620 mobo: Huananzhi x58 board (Random Chinese make. Works with macOS Catalina) gpu: GTX 1050 TI ram: 8GB ssd: Kingston 128GB 

My kexts are:

AppleALC.kext FakeSMC.kext Lilu.kext UsbInjectAll.kext WhateverGreen.kext 

My config.plist:
