Hey all! How do I customize the PCI Cards scene of About This Mac? Right now it shows the correct number of slots for a MacPro7,1, but with none of them occupied; I'd prefer for it to show the correct number of slots for my actual desktop (2 x16 + 1 x4), with the first x16 slot occupied by my graphics card.

Thanks, but I'm using OpenCore, not Clover.

Do you want to customize PCIe tab or Memory tab or both?

Do you have MacPro7,1 SMBIOS? If it's so, RestrictEvents.kext fix this tabs in About this Mac. If you are now using CustomMemory in config.plist, you must remove it when using RestrictEvents.

Ideally both. I have the first four slots of the Memory scene set up to match my computer, with the extra eight filled with dummy modules; otherwise, it shows no memory slots filled and complains about me having more than the 768 GB maximum.

I do. I've been reticent to use RestrictEvents.kext so far, but so be it, I guess.

Despite you don’t want to go with RestrictEvents, it has advantages: fix About this Mac tabs, displays real number of memory slots (no ghost slots as custom memory does)… OpenCore developers prefer that the users have RestrictEvents over custom memory.
