macOS Monterey, or macOS 12, is the eighteenth major release of macOS that was released on 25 October 2021. It was announced on 7 June 2021 at WWDC. This version drops official support for NVIDIA Kepler GPUs and Intel HD 5300 GPUs. It is the final version of macOS to have support for Intel processors without AVX2.
Similarly to what happened in macOS Big Sur, the version number jumped from 12.0 to 12.0.1 ever since the release candidate builds for unknown reasons.
