Work in progress to run macOS on ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9 using OpenCore EFI.
The ThinkPad X1C9 features an Intel Tiger Lake 11th Gen processor (i7 in my case) which is not supported by macOS. Although this OpenCore config spoofs the CPU to a 10th Gen CPU, be aware that there is no way to have GPU graphics acceleration.
