Apple have released a developer beta of their upcoming operating system named macOS High Sierra, which will be macOS 10.13. The name High Sierra continues on with their California landmarks with the name after a scenic CA region, it should be publicly available between September to November.
System Requirements For Mac Os X Sierra
Lucklily for most the new macOS High Sierra 10.13 will run on the same machines as its predecessor macOS Sierra 10.12. Apple had already dropped support for any models pre late 2009 for MacBook and iMac. And anything pre 2010 for MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, Mac Mini and Mac Pro.
Minimum System Requirements. MacOS 10.14.6 or later. 6GB of available storage space for. Customers who purchase a qualifying new Macintosh computer on or after October 1, 2007 that does have not Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard included can upgrade to Leopard for $9.95 through Apple's Mac OS X.
You’ll still require a 64bit Intel processor, 8GBs of free disk space – if upgrading, as appose to clean install min plus at least 2GB of RAM.
