I have OS X installed in my JX upgraded to JH (780M) and everything works great!!!, but for your model you can start here http://rog.asus.com/forum/showthread.php?61354-OS-X-Yosemite-10-10-3-on-ASUS-G750JM-G750JS-and-G750J... this guide is for JZ,JS,JM models but those are the most like to your model.

If you are meant to try hackintosh you will need time and a lot of patience, if you are´t committed to give that, you will be more happy changing your JY model to the greatest macbook pro around.

Good luck.

P.D. if you need help send me a PM

Hi,
yes, agree Broadcom is the way to go. its relatively easy to swap out if you are careful (check for youtube video) and has been 100% reliable on mine.
note that this will invalidate your warranty though, if that is a problem for you.

and..

The short answer for the nvidia card is it will never work since your JY model use Optimus to switch from the Intel igpu to the nvidia gpu and apple use a different system, so you have to live using only the Intel igpu on Yosemite. For the wifi card you can swap it with another compatible one, I don't know which is installed in your system, I recommend to you the Broadcom 4352 card and it will work as an airport, you can use eBay to find one. Good luck
