Just in case you are not familiar:


ASUS G750JX 17-inch 1920x1080 display; Intel Core i7 4700HQ 2.4/3.2GHZ processor; 24GB RAM; 256GB SSD + 1TB HDD; Dedicated GeForce GTX 770M 3GB Graphics; DVD/Blu-ray drive

Note about my version. I removed my optical drive and replaced it with an SSD caddy so I can have another SSD drive in there for total of 3 SSD/HDDs.


Since I've had great success getting this ASUS Laptop beast to work with OSX and is lightning fast (literally desktop replacement that blows Mac Book Pro out of the water) I wanted to share it here for someone who wants to save money and get a beast laptop for around $1700.


This one works with OSX. Here's the initial installation instruction I posted a while back when everyone thought it was impossible with the new Haswell CPUs and laptops.

I would suggest you read through it so you can see what I was doing and then if you have this laptop and you want to install clean 10.9.2 you follow this part which is a bit different as some things changed with 10.9.2, I had to patch the vanilla kernel with 2 perl scripts (Rehabman from TonyMac figured out what needs to be patched) but as a result power management and GPU power management works great now.

One post after that one will have the files you can download if you have ASUS G750JX and I've done everything for you, you just need to use Kext Utility to install kexts once you install OSX.


No need for multibeast.


Alternatively I decided not to use Clover anymore but to use Chameleon as it is more stable and easier to work with.


You can get my modified G750JX modified files you need for the clean install here: http://www.tonymacx86.com/mavericks-laptop-support/114657-osx-mavericks-asus-g750jx-installation-guide-17.html#post805099


Enjoy.
