Anyone got this to work with Intel i7 12700K? #655

Hello, The VM didn't boot and told me to try the different cpu profile settings but none of them seem to work for me.

Not sure if this will help you: Monterey 12.6.5 VirtualBox 7.0.6 CPU 13900K

Hardware declaration in vbox file:

    <Hardware>
      <CPU count="4" CpuProfile="Intel Core i7-6700K">
        <PAE enabled="true"/>
        <NestedHWVirt enabled="true"/>
        <LongMode enabled="true"/>
        <HardwareVirtExLargePages enabled="true"/>
      </CPU>
      <Memory RAMSize="6144"/>
      <Firmware type="EFI"/>
      <HID Pointing="USBMultiTouch" Keyboard="USBKeyboard"/>
      <HPET enabled="true"/>
      <Chipset type="ICH9"/>
         :

Without the right CpuProfile, it wouldn't even boot with the 13900K.

As I recall, Monterey itself requires the following in your \<ExtraData> or it's unstable, on any CPU (this is discussed in another thread here):

<ExtraDataItem name="VBoxInternal/TM/TSCMode" value="RealTSCOffset"/>

Thanks, the config worked, only tried with Catalina though so didn't do the last bit yet.
