Because that's what people are doing change the serial # to avoid duplicate if you want to use the EFI on this thread.

Whomever posts their EFI for others should really leave those serial # fields empty so that this never happens. In other words, so there is no chance that it will happen.

Then just open the config.plist in Clover Configurator, go to the SMBIOS tab and press on the highlighted button. Select the system-definition you want. If you do this when there is already information in place, the serial-numbers will be updated to new ones:

They can also click on the "generate new" buttons a few times to get other serial number options to pick.
I also click on the model look up and Check Coverage buttons to make sure everything looks right to Apple.

I had success with the same hardware and since the author of the post didn't upload the EFI folder, I'm uploading mine (with the required boot flags)

The only change I made before uploading was to generate new serial numbers to avoid duplications.

Ty for the EFI, is the best config ill try in 2 weeks seeking for a solution for this setup. Only have troubles with the usb ports ( i don´t know why, but the webcam freeze in middle of a meeting or the bluethoot audio speeker start to sound like r2d2, any suggest?¿ any easy tutorial to guide me?¿ ) And the other issue are with the sound exit of the mobo, they didn´t appear to select, ill try some option in devices clover configurator, but didnt work...
