Finally Manage to make on of the most powerful and tiny Hackintosh available with > the i9-9940X 14 cores + the AsRock X299e motherboard and Vega RX 64 8GB.
Used for Editing, Motion Design and VFX on Mojave 10.14.1
Exports time >Four time faster compared to my last i7 6 cores hackintosh.
Need to add a lot of parameters to get the config.plst to work but once it's right it Works very smoothly!
Geekbench scores
Multi core : 54000 (above the iMacPro 18 cores)
Single core : 5200
GPU : 186 800
What works :
Ethernet / All USB 3.1 ports
Audio
iMessages / iCloud
Turbo Boost up to 4.2 Ghz all core
Bluetooth & wifi
The blue tooth dongle - Azus works but only for short terme
Best solution to get native bluetooth and wifi support (and being able to control you BIOS and clover with bluetooth peripherals) is to replace the Bluetooth/Wifi card with : Bcm94360cs2 and its adaptor NGFF M.2 Key

USB 3 ports work fine Thanks to kubusikan kexts -->
USB 3.1 type C WORK in full speed
The remaining 4 USB 3 of the MOB and the front IO work fine !
XRP RAM OVERCLOCK : YES
CPU Overcloking to 4.5GHz may work but did experience some freeze/crash and didn't notice any increase in render time when activated.
NEW UPDATE SINCE MOJAVE 10.14.3:
