ASUS-X75VC-Hackintosh
Notes
Clover config & kexts for macOS Mojave 10.14.3. Please generate some other rom number for SMBIOS if you are gonna use this config. Check this for more details. Since this laptop is hardware-wise similar (except display size) to Asus X550VC & Asus X550CC it might work there too – you would need to disable HDMI patch & possibly play around with platform-id.
