What minimum processor does Mac OSX require?

  1. Intel Core i5

  2. PowerPC G5

  3. PowerPC G3

  4. AMD Ryzen 5

The correct answer is: PowerPC G3

Mac OSX requires a Mac computer with PowerPC G3 processor or newer. PowerPC G3 was the minimum required processor when Mac OSX was first released in 2001. Intel Core i5 and AMD Ryzen 5 were not available at that time, hence they are not the minimum required processor for Mac OSX. PowerPC G5 was released in 2003 and is still not the minimum required processor for Mac OSX.
