Notes: AMD provides drivers for 64-bit Windows 10 and Windows 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Ubuntu. This processor 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.
