Me and some of my clients are still using old Mac Pros, upgraded to the max with fast M.2 SSD‘s, 32GB of RAM, 3,33GHz Intel Xeon CPU’s and graphic cards with up to 8GB. They still run fast and reliable under Ventura 13.7.0 via Open Core. For Windows PC‘s this is more then what is required, why not for Mac‘s?

Einige meiner Kunden und ich selber auch benutzen immer noch alte Mac Pros, aufgerüstet mit schnellen M.2 SSDs, 32GB RAM, 3,33GHz Intel Xeon CPUs und Grafikkarten mit bis zu 8GB. Sie laufen immer noch schnell und zuverlässig unter Ventura 13.7.0 via Open Core. Für Windows-PCs ist das mehr als das, was auf Ihrer Webseite als erforderlich angegeben ist, warum gilt das nicht auch für Macs?

Thanks Jeff, thats sadly exactly the issue. To bad, those machines still perfectly work with Photoshop 25.x (2024) and all the AI functions.

Unfortunately, no Mac Pro's 6.1 (trashcan) (2013) , 5.1 (2010-2012) and 4.1 (2009) have processors that support AVX2, which i'm guessing is why you can't install Photoshop 2025.

Many Windows users with older systems are in the same predicament.
