I'm sorry, I thought you were running OS High Sierra on your MacBook. The Vega will not work beyond the default minimum Apple drivers in Sierra. If you have an Apple account with the Appstore you can sign up for the High Sierra Beta program, its free and it works great for the Vega cards. Use the link below to sign up and use your MacBook to download. It will want to load when its finished with the download but you can go to top tool bar and choose to quit installer. It will be in your launchpad and in Applications folder. If you connect your Hackintosh drive to the MacBook using USB to sata adapter you can open the install app and select that disk to load High Sierra. It will be like an update and leave your existing files and data in place.

Clover Configurator. Download this too.
Before you load High Sierra I would connect your Hackintosh disk and mount the EFi for that disk.
1). Go to top tool bar and select "Finder" scroll to "Preferences" and click the box next to "Hard disk" it will now show all disks on your desktop which will make edits easier.
2). Open Clover Configurator and look to the left side options window and select mount EFI. You should see 2 options one the MacBook and the Hack disk choose the Hack disk and mount. Close Clover Configurator and you should see a new disk icon on desktop EFI. this is your clover EFI folder for the hack disk. Open it and drag the entire EFI folder inside to the desktop. After its finished copying to the desktop go back to the EFi folder and delete it or move to trash.
3). Open Clover config. app again and this time mount EFi select "current boot disk" this is your MacBook EFi folder. close clover and click on the EFi icon. Drag the EFi folder to the hack EFI icon/folder that is empty. You should now have 2 EFi icons on your desktop and both should have the MacBook EFi files in them. Open the folders and you should only see the Apple folder in both of them. By doing this you will be able to load the High Sierra software using your MacBook through several reboots as required. You should see the MacBook disk and EFi as grey disk icons and the hack disk as yellow external disk icons. If both the disks have the same name like Macintosh HD then change the name of the Hack disk to something like Macintosh HD2. This will help to avoid errors later.
4). Go to "System Preferences" tab ( the Grey gear and box) on bottom tool bar and select Start up disk. Choose the Hack disk you will have to use password to finish. Now you can close everything and then open the instal app, run it choosing the Hack disk for target drive. Be careful and check all the install windows, the 2nd or 3rd window I think has a pre checked option "APFS" uncheck that box so you don't load it in apfsfile mode. Remember to look for this when loading the software.
5). After its done loading and updating follow the first few steps above and change back to your clover EFi files for the Hack disk with High Sierra. Go back to Startup disk option and set to MacBook drive. Now your ready to put your disk in the Hackintosh and test.
Good Luck.
