System Requirements

Certain hardware (including but not limited to GPU and GNA) requires manual installation of specific drivers to work correctly. The drivers may also require updates to the operating system, including Linux kernel. These updates need to be handled by the user and are not part of OpenVINO installation. Refer to your system’s documentation for updating instructions.

Note

Using a GPU requires installing drivers that are not included in the Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit.
Not all Intel CPUs include the integrated graphics processor. See Product Specifications for information about your processor.
Although this release works with Ubuntu 20.04 for discrete graphic cards, the support is limited due to discrete graphics drivers.
Recommended OpenCL™ driver versions: 22.43 for Ubuntu 22.04, 22.41 for Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.28 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8

Intel® Gaussian & Neural Accelerator

Operating Systems:

Ubuntu* 22.04 long-term support (LTS), 64-bit Ubuntu* 20.04 long-term support (LTS), 64-bit Windows* 10, 64-bit Windows* 11, 64-bit

Operating system and developer environment requirements

  • Ubuntu 22.04 with Linux kernel 5.15+

  • Ubuntu 20.04 with Linux kernel 5.15+

  • RHEL 8 with Linux kernel 5.4

A Linux OS build environment requires:

GNU Compiler Collection and CMake are needed for building from source:

To support CPU, GPU, GNA, or hybrid-core CPU capabilities, higher versions of kernel might be required for 10th Gen Intel® Core™ Processor, 11th Gen Intel® Core™ Processors, 11th Gen Intel® Core™ Processors S-Series Processors, 12th Gen Intel® Core™ Processors, 13th Gen Intel® Core™ Processors,  or 4th Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors.

A Windows OS build environment requires:

A macOS build environment requires:

  • TensorFlow 1.15, 2.12

  • MxNet 1.9

  • ONNX 1.13

  • PaddlePaddle* 2.4

Other DL Framework versions may be compatible with the current OpenVINO release, but only the versions listed here are fully validated.

Note

OpenVINO Python binaries and binaries on Windows/CentOS7/MACOS(x86) are built with oneTBB libraries. Other binaries on Ubuntu and Redhat OSes are built with legacy TBB which is released by OS distribution. OpenVINO can be built with either oneTBB or legacy TBB by the user on all OS systems listed. System compatibility and performance are improved on Hybrid CPUs, such as 12th Gen Intel Core and above.
