    2010 Intel based CPUs are Dual Core Duo. Meaning two cores in one metal silicon wafer chip. It has no hyper threading channels. The MacBook pro's 2012.5 and up Late models have a Dual Core i5 CPU that has Hyper threading technology or Turbo Boost what this means is a 4 core device. In these chips the two main cores are copied and are virtualized allowing the computer to think it's a four core. If you step up to an i7 from 2015 specially on Dells XPS series they have 4 cores 4 virtualized core-threads making the computer appear and function a 8 core machine.

    It doesn't let you upgrade because you're on the latest version that. Laptop supports the 2010 macbook pro and 2011 Runs that latest version and the 2012 runs catalina the 2007 macbook pro runs X El Capitan x el capitan looks like macos Mojave

    Don't force an upgrade partition you SSD if you have space and format it to the APSF file system then boot from the boot image via USB and install there if it does bot work for you you can always delete the partition and still have your old OS and data back.

    I know this video is old but the highest OS I would upgrade a Mac older than 2012, is to Big Sur as anything older than that doesn’t have a metal graphics card and after Big Sur a lot of applications don’t run well on the old graphics cards because they use OpenGL

    I’ve got a mbp mid 2010 13” model 7,1, 16GB RAM (OWC) and a Seagate 1TB SSHD. I tried Monterey but many apps didn’t work, lacks of Metal Library support. It is still upgradable or not? Can I install programs not supported in High Sierra? Thanks in advance, sorry I can’t speak English very well

    • @aliaseveIT
      @aliaseveIT  Год назад +1

      I think upgradable but it will not be fast and comfortable to use so i recommend staying in High Sierra. You can't install programs that are not supported so you'll have to look for alternatives. Even with the 16GB RAM, you'll see that the bottleneck is the Core 2 Duo CPU. I've got mine at 8GB RAM and the RAM usage doesn't go above 5GB much. I'd recommend either staying in High Sierra or installing Linux like Zorin OS.

      I see it on the OpenCore Legacy Patcher list so I think it can, but, I wouldn't advise since it would be very slow. You can upgrade the RAM and the SSD but in the end the bottleneck will be the CPU.

      I don't know if it will run fast because even though you've upgraded the RAM and the Hard Drive, your processor will be the bottleneck. You can try using OCLP to install Monterey but it might be sluggish.
