ASUS ROG Strix - GL703VD

[Skorm92]

Hi there!

After using linux for a long time I'd like to step over to Mac OSX due to the fact that important features like the touchpad and volume control are now not working, also I can't upgrade to the latest kernel due to the display failing on later linux builds. and also some software like Outlook/Photoshop is a nice to have without a ton of workarounds to get it working on linux.

However, I can't find if my laptop is capable by default to run OSX/Hackintosh (for example Wi-Fi).
I can't change any hardware parts due to this being a company issued laptop.

I'd be awesome if any of you has a proper guide I can follow (as I am greatly inexperienced in running/installing Mac OS X)
Model: ASUS ROG GL703VD-GC083T

Thank you in advance!

Most Asus laptops use Intel Wifi which currently is not supported, you would have to swap that out with compatible hardware or use a usb wifi dongle, which can cause issues with sleep etc
