Alex HQuest Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Curious if anyone is planning to early jump on Intel’s 12th gen Alder Lake CPU, and attempting to get macOS installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aluveitie Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 According to one user from the Hackintosh Forum macOS is running on Alder Lake: https://www.hackintosh-forum.de/forum/thread/55235-hackintosh-mit-z690-12th-gen-cpu/ Since Windows 10 runs pretty well too, we can assume that direct OS support is not that important.

Still tuning new hardware. Lilu.kext and OpenCore already have basic AlderLake support https://github.com/acidanthera/Lilu/commit/23fa49f79afe331add04c0a606f1174e74dbd93a https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/commit/6cef37f0bee04f2aa8dcab9aa8c390870f69f9cd and https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/commit/13af8ec14ad5f7dcb162a156c70f08e5bcd19462 Geekbench results (Only P-Cores active) https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/10939422 Cinebench R23 Trying to get E-Cores working in macOS...

Hello @vandroiy2012, how is your research on the z690 platform going? Any luck with P + E Cores and hyperthreading enabled?
