Hello everyone :) Thanks to the time you'll be according to my problem.

I have installed OpenCore on my Asus UX430UN following this tutorial https://github.com/hieplpvip/Asus-Zenbook-Hackintosh/blob/master/docs/installation.md .

Now, i want to install windows 10 to play World Of Warcraft with my graphics card which is not compatible with my hackintosh.
I want to install windows 10 on external SSD to have a clean install without breaking my hackintosh. Is it possible ? It is worth for gaming (WoW) on external SSD with Type-C/USB.3.0


Thank you all and best wishes for the festive season !
 
Limitations of data transfer via USB make playing games a slow proposition. You will probably not be able to score high or win at all.
Also, it is doubtful that the Asus BIOS/UEFI will allow you to boot from an external USB drive.

If you want to try it you can download a Win10 installation ISO and use Rufus to create a "Windows-to-go" USB drive. There are several sites that have instructions to do this if you google for them.
If you do not want to use Rufus, there are a few paid-for (usually USD$30 to USD$50) apps that you can try - or, if you are hands on savvy with the command line, there are methods to create one via the command app (same as Mac Terminal app) in Win10.
