With the release of the M2 MacBooks, Apple made an Apple Silicon only installer labeled "macOS 12.4 (21F2092 - 11.7GB)". Trying to boot this on Intel will not work.
Instead, download "macOS 12.4 (21F79 - 12.1GB)" or newer.

* Note that some machines (namely 2012 and older) may not be currently supported on macOS Ventura. If you see this prompt, you'll need to use an older version of macOS.

With the release of OpenCore Legacy Patcher v0.5.0 and newer, early support for macOS Ventura has been implemented for most Metal-capable Macs. This page will be used to inform users regarding current issues and will be updated as new patch sets are developed and added to our patcher.
## Newly dropped hardware
Ventura's release dropped a large amount of Intel hardware, thus requiring the usage of OpenCore Legacy Patcher on the following models (in addition to previously removed models):
* iMac16,1 (21.5-inch, Late 2015)
* iMac16,2 (21.5-inch 4K, Late 2015)
* iMac17,1 (27-inch 5K, Late 2015)
* MacBook9,1 (12-inch, Early 2016)
* MacBookAir7,1 (11-inch, Early 2015)
* MacBookAir7,2 (13-inch, Early 2015)
* MacBookPro11,4 (15-inch, Mid 2015, iGPU)
* MacBookPro11,5 (15-inch, Mid 2015, dGPU)
* MacBookPro12,1 (13-inch, Early 2015)
* MacBookPro13,1 (13-inch, Late 2016)
* MacBookPro13,2 (13-inch, Late 2016)
* MacBookPro13,3 (15-inch, Late 2016)
* Macmini7,1 (Late 2014)
* MacPro6,1 (Late 2013)
## Current status
Overall, macOS Ventura is useable on most Metal-capable machines (ie. 2012 and newer). The graphics patches implemented have near feature parity to macOS Monterey, with patches still being under heavy development. See [Legacy Metal Graphics Support and macOS Ventura #1008](https://github.com/dortania/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/issues/1008) issue for more information.
* The sole exception for 2012+ hardware support in Ventura is the Late 2013, Trash Can Mac Pro. Currently we're in the process of researching and developing patches for this unit, however at this time the machine is not bootable on Ventura.
* More information can be found here: [2013 Mac Pro and macOS Ventura Boot Issues #1009](https://github.com/dortania/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/issues/1009)

### Late 2013 Mac Pro Boot Issues
As mentioned above, users of the Late 2013 Trash Can Mac Pro (MacPro6,1) currently cannot boot macOS Ventura. This issue is still being actively researched, however no overall time estimate can be given. See below for more information:
* [2013 Mac Pro and macOS Ventura Boot Issues #1009](https://github.com/dortania/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/issues/1009)
### AMD Polaris, Vega and Navi support on pre-2013 Mac Pros and pre-2012 iMacs
For users with 2008 to 2012 Mac Pros (MacPro3,1-5,1) and 2009 to 2011 iMacs (iMac9,1-12,2), keep in mind macOS Ventura now requires [AVX2.0 support in the CPU](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Vector_Extensions#Advanced_Vector_Extensions_2) for native graphics acceleration. Thus while your GPU may be natively supported, you cannot run Ventura officially with these GPUs.
* CPUs supporting AVX2.0 are Haswell or newer, which no pre-2019 Mac Pros can be upgraded with.
Currently at this time, OpenCore Legacy Patcher only supports patching the AMD Polaris Graphics stack to no longer require AVX2.0. However due to lack of hardware on-hand, we cannot support AMD Vega or Navi on Ventura.
* If you have spare Vega or Navi GPUs you'd like to donate, feel free to reach out: khronokernel@icloud.com
Additionally, the native stack will crash over and over on macOS Ventura as it fails to load the AVX2.0-based binaries. Thus to patch Ventura, you will need to boot in Safe Mode and run OCLP's Root Volume Patcher
* To enter Safe Mode, hold Shift+Enter when selecting Ventura in OCLP's Boot Picker
Following GPUs are applicable:
| GPU Architecture | Model Families | Supported |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| AMD Polaris | RX 4xx/5xx (10/20 series) | <span style="color:#30BCD5"> Supported with patching </span> |
| AMD Vega | Vega 56/64/VII (10/20 series) | <span style="color:red"> Unsupported </span> |
| AMD Navi | RX 5xxx/6xxx (10/20 series) | ^^ |
### Non-Metal Graphics Acceleration
Regarding non-Metal, the team is hard at work to get non-Metal working, however this is our greatest challenge since Big Sur.
Apple has made significant changes to the graphics stack in order to facilitate fancy effects, and in particularly, Stage Manager. We will update you as we work on development, however, now is not the best time to ask about ETAs.
The following GPUs are applicable:
* NVIDIA:
* Tesla (8000 - 300 series)
* AMD:
* TeraScale (2000 - 6000 series)
* Intel:
* Iron Lake
* Sandy Bridge (2000 - 3000 series)
The following machines shipped stock with an unsupported GPU:
::: warning Systems shipped with non-Metal Graphics Cards
* iMac7,1 - iMac12,x
* MacBook4,1 - MacBook7,1
* MacBookAir2,1 - MacBookAir4,x
* MacBookPro4,1 - MacBookPro8,x
* Macmini3,1 - Macmini5,x
* MacPro3,1 - MacPro5,1
* Xserve2,1 - Xserve3,1

### Legacy Wireless Support
For systems that required Root Patches in macOS Monterey to achieve Wireless support, unfortunately macOS Ventura has broken the patch set. Currently the following Wifi cards are unsupported:
* Atheros: All models
* Broadcom: BCM94328 and BCM94322
The following machines shipped stock with these cards:
::: warning Systems shipped with applicable cards
* iMac12,x and older
* Macmini3,1 and older
* MacBook5,x and older
* MacBookAir2,1 and older
* MacBookPro7,1 and older
* MacBookPro6,x is exempt
* MacPro5,1 and older
:::
Currently BCM943224, BCM94331, BCM94360 and BCM943602 are still fully support by OpenCore Legacy Patcher. Consider upgrading to these cards if possible.
### USB 1.1 (OHCI/UHCI) Support
For Penryn systems and pre-2013 Mac Pros, USB 1.1 support was outright removed in macOS Ventura. While USB1.1 may seem unimportant, it handles many important devies on your system. These include:
* Keyboard and Trackpad for laptops
* IR Receivers
* Bluetooth
::: warning The following systems rely on USB1.1
* iMac10,x and older
* Macmini3,1 and older
* MacBook7,1 and older
* MacBookAir3,1 and older
* MacBookPro7,1 and older
* MacBookPro6,x is exempt
* MacPro5,1 and older

### Ethernet issue with Early 2008 Mac Pro
MacPro3,1 suffers from Ethernet driver dying after returning from sleep, current workaround is to use a USB Ethernet adapter or disable sleep.
