# macOS Monterey Support
With OpenCore Legacy Patcher v0.1.7 and newer, we've implemented beta macOS Monterey support for users. Please note that Apple has dropped a lot of hardware with this release as well as broken many of our previous patch sets. 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.
Current models with full, unhindered support in OpenCore Legacy Patcher are the following:
* iMac13,x and newer
* iMac13,x series must have a Nvidia dGPU for best support
* iMac10,1-12,x included if Wireless Card and Bluetooth upgraded as well as Metal GPU
* Macmini7,1 and newer
* MacBook8,1 and newer
* MacBookAir6,x and newer
* MacBookPro11,x and newer
* MacPro3,1 and newer
* Requires Wireless Card and Bluetooth upgrade for 3,1-5,1 as well as Metal GPU

## Current Hardware Drawbacks:
Below is a list of hardware that currently has issues with Monterey:
### macOS 12.0 Beta 4 issue on 2012 to early 2013 machines
* [Acceleration Support Dropped](#acceleration-support-dropped)
* [Metal GPUs](#metal-gpus)
* [Non-Metal GPUs](#non-metal-gpus)
* [Bluetooth Support Dropped](#bluetooth-support-dropped)
* [Wireless Support Dropped](#wireless-support-dropped)
Currently in macOS 12.0 Beta 4, many Ivy Bridge Macs have experienced Bluetooth issues relating to their BCM20702 chipset. Currently the exact issue is unknown however is assumed to be a bug on Apple's end. Recommend downgrading to macOS 12.0 Beta 3 till resolved:
## Acceleration Support Dropped
* [12.0 Beta 3 (21A5284e) InstallAssistant (Direct)](http://swcdn.apple.com/content/downloads/02/08/071-63739-A_G5RYVW5JHT/dfz5gp3s0jm9vl7m30oewq141zkpv8edr8/InstallAssistant.pkg)
* [12.0 Beta 3 (21A5284e) InstallAssistant (archive.org)](https://archive.org/details/12.0-21a5284e-beta-3)
### Metal GPUs
A temporary fix is to restart the BlueTool and bluetoothd process with each boot, note it may not work for all users:
* Intel HD4000 iGPUs lost support
* Re-introduced with OpenCore Legacy Patcher v0.1.7
```sh
sudo killall -9 BlueTool bluetoothd
```
By default these machines require root volume patches to gain graphics acceleration in Monterey. OpenCore Legacy Patcher supports readding support however SIP can no longer be enabled due to root patching:
## Previously Broken Hardware
* Macmini6,x
* MacBookAir5,x
* MacBookPro9,x
* MacBookPro10,x
::: details Wireless Support Dropped (Resolved in 0.2.5 and newer)
### Non-Metal GPUs
* Broadcom BCM94328, BCM94322 and Atheros Wireless Chipsets lost support
* Non-Metal GPUs no longer have working acceleration patches:
* Intel Ironlake and Sandy Bridge iGPUs
* Nvidia Tesla and Fermi GPUs
* AMD TeraScale 1 and 2 GPUs
The following machines cannot gain graphics acceleration at all in Monterey, only basic framebuffer and brightness control (iMac8,1/9,1 and MacBook5,2 excluded):
The following models lost Bluetooth support in macOS Monterey due to their legacy Wireless chipset:
* iMac12,x and older
* Macmini5,x and older
* MacBook7,1 and older
* MacBookAir4,x and older
* MacBookPro8,x and older
* Macmini3,1 and older
* MacBook5,x and older
