Multiple outlets report that macOS 27 “Golden Gate” is no longer compatible with Intel-based Macs. How-To Geek and CNET both state that the operating system requires an Apple chip, indicating a transition away from Intel processors. As a result, readers looking to install or upgrade to macOS 27 should check whether their Mac uses Apple silicon rather than an Intel CPU.
