Don't use legacy mode for modern hardware. Create a UEFI installation for this hardware. For Fake CPU ID stuff use the Kaby Lake/ 200 series boards testing thread - it clearly sets out what to do.

HDMI audio requires additional work over and above the basic installation process:

I get boot0af: error when booting from the USB, I've seen something of boot1h but don't know how to install it to the USB drive, I've tried some terminal stuff but didn't work, I suppose that I don't know how to make the code on terminal. Can you help me with this?

I can't get trough the installation screen. I get some errors in my GA-Z270X. I hope you can help me with this..

When Face CPUID to 0x0506E3 I get stuccoed at mbinit: done [128MB total pool size, (85/42) split] (see photo)

When booting with FAKE CPUID and cpus=1 I get on rooting via boot-uuid from /chosen: (lot's of numbers).

Is there any thing I can do? I've tried with -f also but nothing worked.

Use a USB2 thumbdrive and install using a USB 2 rear port. Install on to a single SSD drive not a fusion drive. I do not have this hardware so it is difficult to give you additional advice.
Follow the advice from others and the instructions on the testing thread for this hardware. You could consider adding the GTX 760 and see if that makes a difference in getting further with the installation process.

Got it working on an HDD I had that used for testing, I also got full graphics acceleration, now I'm attempting with Fusion Drive...

I run Multibeast on Macintosh HD (SSD + HDD) and install clover EFI but the two EFI partitions are empty and cannot proceed to modify clover parameters. How can I install Clover on the drive? Also, how should I boot it (from which Drive)
 
You may need to use disk utility to ascertain which disk is which?
I think that you should be able to use Clover Configurator to move the EFI folder to the first disks EFI partition. Once the UEFI/BIOS for the motherboard is set up to boot from the first drive then it should all run correctly.

Is there any detailed guide on how to do it?

I've also seen the possibility to create a clover partition and boot from there, I don't know if this is possible.

I genuinely do not know, you will need to do a search and some testing. Ensure that you have mounted the EFI partition. I don't know if you may need to show hidden files during the process:

two days with the computer I finally have both builds working at 95% (one of them fusion drive), here my problems:

Build 1:

- HDMI audio not working, I'm using the GTX 760
- Do not have Wifi or Bluetooth (Just bought the FV-T919 you adviced me before).

Build 2:

- HDMI audio not working, I'm using iGPU 650. Just asked in the other thread about this possible fix.
- Do not have Wifi or Bluetooth (Just bought the FV-T919 you adviced me before).

What can I do to solve HDMI audio problem with the GTX 760? Do you know any fix for the intel HD graphics 650 for audio?
 
I have previously linked to HDMI audio instructions and assistance thread. Intel graphics HD630 is similar to HD530 graphics so if it is possible it should be documented. if work is still being done to get it working then a fix/patch option may be available in due course. ALC1220 audio is still being developed at this point in time but expect something to be released soon.

A simple USB audio device can be used that has 3.5mm audio in/out connections and may be worth considering in the short term.

Can you please link again the HDMI audio on GTX 760? I can't find it on the thread...

Also, If there is any documentation to make HD 630 working (or 530) I'll like it very much.

I've searched but found nothing.
