Is DSDT/SSDT patching needed if followed latest guide?

Hi guys,

I've followed the latest Vanilla guide posted here, and I'm here with my shiny new Hackintosh (MSI Z270 Gaming Pro Carbon - I7 7700k), so thank you all for your contribution.

I've done a Laptop Hackintosh a few years ago, and I remember that cloning the system DSDT and then patching it with MaciASL was absolutely necessary, but my build now seems to be working just fine, and I can't find an "official" DSDT/SSDT patching guide here.

Should I patch it anyways? Is there an updated guide to do that for desktops? Didn't I just patch the DSDT with Clover when following the Vanilla guide (change EHC1 to EC01, etc)? What's the difference?
