Notes: AMD provides Windows 10 64-bit graphics drivers for this processor. It is not on Microsoft's Windows 11 supported-processor lists for 24H2 or 25H2, and 26H2 keeps the same requirements, so Windows 10 is the newest supported Windows release. Mainstream Linux distributions run on it. macOS is tracked for Apple-designed cores only.
