System Information
Operating system: macOS-12.1-arm64-arm-64bit 64 Bits
Graphics card: Apple M1 Max Apple 4.1 Metal - 76.3

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.1.0 Beta, branch: master, commit date: 2022-02-12 01:56, hash: 517afcc858
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
I have a new M1 MAX Chip and am running macOS 12.1, and when I go to enable Metal on the newest beta, it doesn't allow it saying: "No compatible GPUs found for Cycles
Requires Apple Silicon and macOS 12.0 or newer"

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Try to enable Metal with this beta build of blender
It works on any Blender file for me (including blender's classroom)

Update your system to Apple their macOS 12.2.1, as is available for download, you might have better results then...

Yes, you indeed need macOS 12.2 or newer now for Apple Silicon. Updated the info inside the User Preferences.
