Osx cpuinfo update#

You can simply download and update OpenCore and kexts as mentioned here: # Up-to-date kexts, bootloader and istĮnsure that you have the latest version of OpenCore, kexts and ist so it won't have any odd compatibility issues.

X99 and X299 users with broken NVRAM will need to install on another machine and move the SSD when done.Asus 9 series: For more info, see here: Haswell ASUS Z97 Big Sur Update Thread (opens new window).Stage 2 installation requiring working NVRAM.MSI Navi users no longer require the ATY,rom/ -wegnoegpu patch to boot the installer.This way, it will work in both Catalina and Big Sur so you can remove SATA-unsupported if you want. We recommend setting the MinKernel value to 20.0.0 for the kext CtlnaAHCIPort.kext to avoid any potential conflicts.You can find a sample kext here: Catalina's patched AppleAHCIPort.kext (opens new window) A partial fix is to inject Catalina's version with any conflicting symbols being patched.Due to the outright removal of the class, trying to spoof to another ID (generally done by SATA-unsupported.kext) can fail for many and create instability for others. For some reason, Apple removed the AppleIntelPchSeriesAHCI class from AppleAHCIPort.kext.Potential work-around is to inject a patched IO80211Family, see here for more details: IO80211 Patches (opens new window).See Wireless Buyers guide (opens new window) for potential cards to upgrade to.

Osx cpuinfo drivers#

HD 4000 and HD 2500, however currently these drivers are still present in 11.0.1.

Ivy Bridge-E CPUs are still supported thanks to being in MacPro6,1.

These CPUs will still boot without much issue, but note that no Macs are supported with consumer Ivy Bridge in Big Sur.

Not much hardware has been dropped, though the few that have:

iMac14,1 should transition over to iMac14,4.

Note: AMD CPU users with Nvidia GPUs may find MacPro7,1 more suitable.

iMac14,2 and iMac14,3 should transition over to using iMac15,1.iMac13,2 should transition over to using iMac15,1.

iMac13,1 should transition over to using iMac14,4.If your SMBIOS was supported in Catalina and isn't included above, you're good to go!
