MacOS Ventura

macOS Ventura, or macOS 13, is a version of macOS that was released on 24 October 2022. It was announced on 6 June 2022 at WWDC. It is the first version of macOS to not boot out of the box on CPUs without AVX2, first present in Intel's Haswell architecture. However, pre-AVX2 support is still provided on Apple silicon installations for Rosetta 2. Ventura drops support for AMD's GCN 1-3 GPUs, as well as Intel Haswell, Broadwell, and Skylake integrated graphics.
