The 13 inch MacBook Pro Apple never DARED to make...

This amazing creation is the first and only quad core 13 inch Unibody MacBook Pro- a model that Apple never made! But Apple fan and certifiable mad lad @dosdude1 didn't let that stop him. This MacBook achieves a record by taking advantage of a weird quirk of Intel processors from this time period... How much faster is it compared to a stock dual core 13 inch MacBook Pro, and can the chassis cool such a beefy chip? Let's find out!

Really glad you got a chance to take a look at this one, as it is probably the most worthwhile CPU upgrade I’ve done yet to one of these Macs. Brings it almost up to 15” levels of performance!

Dosdude is such a great guy. I'm happy to see him get more recognition;

By the way, thanks for the shout out guys. I’m doing my video on it currently ❤

My aunt recently passed away, when I cleaned up her storage I found a SEALED IN BOX 2012 13" MBP. I paid $25 for RAM upgrade and swapped out the platter drive with my excess SSD. Followed the hack to install Ventura, etc. Now it's quite usable for non-demanding tasks.

I still remember Hrutkay’s video planning that 3.0GHz upgrade, and wondering for all these years what happened to that project. Well, here we are!

I had a mid-2012 MBP 13, it was my project computer and I really enjoyed upgrading it as far as it would go. That included installing Catalina using Dosdude's excellent instructions.

I can't give you guys enough likes on these vidoes. Dosdude is a freaking genius.

Who besides me would like to see more Luke & Dosdude collabs?
Keep it up guys!

[SalemTechsperts]

Oh my God, it’s the man himself! Absolute legend. Awesome video! Love how Apple said 8GB max RAM when this bad boi could hold 16GB.

Dosdude is amazing. I love this stuff!

Luke Miani and DOSDude1's powers are increased when they collab on videos.

Still using the 2012 Pro till today. Light Ps, 100+ frames figma, 20+ chrome tabs, no issue (occasional max-out fan speed). we just had 10 year anniversary recently🎉 this macbook lasts really well

[Slurkz]

I love this sooo much. Thanks, Luke & DOSDude! 💜

[MysterSer]

I was just talking all excited like this with my dad and he got overwhelmed.. glad to be in good company!!!

Those featuring with dosdude are always cool & fun to watch, can't wait til the next video with him!

[ChrisEpp]

DosDude1 is my hero! Been using his Mac OS unofficial upgrade patchers for years and so thankful for his work (:

[chechugarguez]

Awesome work, so interesting. Thanks for sharing, it would be nice if any of the retina early 2013 or macbook air could also achieve this 4-core upgrade.

DOSDude is THE man! I have a lot of respect for him! Never knew what he looks like though so great to put a face to the name! Him and I briefly chatted back in 2018 about him bulletproofing my 15 inch Late 2011 MBP. But it still hasn’t died on me yet! So I never needed it so far! 😂 I’m so impressed by how far he’s come though. Would love to send him one of my machines someday…

Bro Dos dudes like everywhere YO! Love his channel. Super useful. All the best

given that I had a 2014 MacBook Air and I did start my video editing carer on it, I know it takes seconds for that machine to thermal throttle with a dual core i5 4th gen, I can only imagine how much time will it take a MacBook Air quad core to thermal throttle
