Hey fellas,

I installed Ventura on my 2012 MBA with just 4 GB of RAM using OCLP yesternight. It works surprisingly fast even compared with Catalina. The only issues are CPU / GPU temperatures up to 95 degrees when under moderate load. Gets better when I set the fans to 'full blast' using MacFanControl, but that's noisy, and it also seems to be eating through the battery much faster than it would on Catalina. Indexing should've finished by now.

Are things any better on Monterey? Really don't want to go back to Catalina.


Thanks a lot,
AR
