References to AMD CPUs found in macOS Catalina beta

References to AMD CPUs found in macOS Catalina beta

In a very recent beta version of macOS Catalina, some references to the use of AMD CPUs has been found, which might be a loose suggestion to Apple moving from Intel to AMD or adding AMD has an option of some Mac models. User “_rogame” on Twitter and Reddit has found some the references within macOS.

However, it is very unlikely that Apple would move to AMD for CPUs for Mac units, there has been far more evidence to suggest Apple would move to processors and chips devolped internally, for example the Apple Watch, iPhone, iPad and anything else Apple makes – apart from Macs all runs on custom silicon developed in house.

MacRumors also reported last week “It’s worth noting that we haven’t heard any rumors about AMD-based Macs specifically.” – Which makes sense.
