System Requirements

Certain hardware requires specific drivers to work properly with OpenVINO. These drivers, including Linux* kernels, might require updates to your operating system, which is not part of OpenVINO installation. Refer to your hardware’s documentation for updating instructions.

CPU

  • Intel Atom® processor with Intel® SSE4.2 support

  • Intel® Pentium® processor N4200/5, N3350/5, N3450/5 with Intel® HD Graphics

  • Ubuntu 20.04 long-term support (LTS), 64-bit (Kernel 5.15+)

  • Ubuntu 18.04 long-term support (LTS) with limitations, 64-bit (Kernel 5.4+)

  • Windows* 10

  • Windows* 11

  • macOS* 10.15 and above, 64-bit

  • macOS 11 and above, ARM64

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux* 8, 64-bit

  • Debian 9 ARM64 and ARM

  • CentOS 7 64-bit

GPU

  • Intel® HD Graphics

  • Intel® UHD Graphics

  • Intel® Iris® Pro Graphics

  • Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics

  • Intel® Iris® Xe Max Graphics

  • Intel® Arc ™ GPU Series

  • Intel® Data Center GPU Flex Series

  • Intel® Data Center GPU Max Series

  • 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

  • Centos 7

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, 64-bit

  • The use of of GPU requires drivers that are not included in the Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit package.

  • A chipset that supports processor graphics is required for Intel® Xeon® processors. Processor graphics are not included in all processors. See Product Specifications for information about your processor.

  • Although this release works with Ubuntu 20.04 for discrete graphic cards, Ubuntu 20.04 is not POR for discrete graphics drivers, so OpenVINO support is limited.

  • The following minimum (i.e., used for old hardware) OpenCL™ driver’s versions were used during OpenVINO internal validation: 22.43 for Ubuntu 22.04, 21.48 for Ubuntu 20.04 and 21.49 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.

NPU and GNA

  • Ubuntu 22.04 long-term support (LTS), 64-bit

  • Windows 11, 64-bit

  • 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

  • These Accelerators require drivers that are not included in the Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit package.

  • Users can access the NPU plugin through the OpenVINO archives on the download page.

Operating systems and developer environment

  • Ubuntu 22.04 with Linux kernel 5.15+

  • Ubuntu 20.04 with Linux kernel 5.15+

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 with Linux kernel 5.4

Build environment components:

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

  • Windows 10

  • Windows 11

Build environment components:

  • macOS 10.15 and above

Build environment components:

  • TensorFlow* 1.15, 2.12

  • MxNet* 1.9.0

  • ONNX* 1.14.1

  • PaddlePaddle* 2.4

This package can be installed on other versions of DL Framework but only the version specified here is 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.
