Already released Beta 3.

Yea thats what I said.

 

[esafeddie]

Right so logically I was responding to the second line of the post.



And Developer beta 3!

Still cloudy but don't stress, it's all good.

On a longer time frame, will there be any 'compatible' ARM motherboards coming down the line that will allow the hackintosh culture and expertise to continue?

Did they drop support for Ivy Bridge? That would be a shame.

Did you ever get an answer about the Ivy Bridge processors? Even if the i3 and i5 Ivy's won't work, what about some of the higher end i7 processors? My understanding is that the i7s are more like the 4th generation i3, i5 and i7s?

Also, did you get an answer about whether the Gen 4 Intel processors will slot into the same motherboard that accommodates the earlier Ivy Bridge motherboards?

 

[butchie52651]

Why do you assume that?
I'm running a Ivy Bridge hackintosh, currently with an iMac 2013 profile. But I kinda do expect to bump that up to 2014 when necessary.

What about a late 2012 i7 Intel processor in a motherboard that generally supports third generation Intel I processors?
Also, don't some boards allow you to use either generation 3 or generation 4 processors in them?

You cannot put 3rd gen Ivy Bridge CPUs into H or Z87/97 4th gen motherboards. The socket was changed. Only 2nd and 3rd gen CPUs are interchangeable.

Thanks! What about a late 3rd generation i7 processor on an IvyBridge capable motherboard? Will that run macOS Big Sur?
