Content Type: Compatibility   |   Article ID: 000032181   |   Last Reviewed: 02/06/2025

You can find the supported operating system for Intel® Core™ Processors such as Windows 11*, Windows® 10, OS X*, Linux* OS, and Chrome* OS using the Intel® Compatibility database and clicking Processor OS Compatibility.

The processor operating system (OS) compatibility site has five sections:

  • Intel® Core™ i3
  • Intel® Core™ i5
  • Intel® Core™ i7
  • Intel® Core™ i9
  • Intel® Core™ Ultra

Steps to find the supported Operating Systems for your processor:

  1. Identify your Intel® Processor, or note the processor that you need information about.
  2. Click Processor OS Compatibility and look for the section matching the brand level of the processor (i9, i7, i5, or i3) or Intel® Core™ Ultra.
  3. Click Search for the selected processor; you can use Ctrl+ F to search.

The list also shows the Intel® Core™ Generation and the segment, whether it is a desktop or mobile (laptop) processor.

Note: If you have any questions related to the operating system support for your OEM (original equipment manufacturer) PC, contact the OEM for support.
