OpenVINO™ toolkit: An open source toolkit that makes it easier to write once, deploy anywhere.
System Requirements
Disclaimer. Certain hardware (including but not limited to GPUs and Intel® Gaussian & Neural Accelerator [Intel® GNA]) requires manual installation of specific drivers to work correctly. Drivers, including Linux* kernels, might require updates to your operating system. Refer to their system documentation. Operating system updates are not part of OpenVINO™ installation.
Development Platforms
Processors
- 6th to 13th generation Intel® Core™ processors
- 1st to 4th generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors
Compatible Operating Systems

Discrete Graphics
- Intel® Data GPU Flex Series Center (formerly code named Arctic Sound)
- Intel® Arc ™ GPU (formerly code named DG2)
Compatible Operating Systems
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (64 bit)
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (64 bit)
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (64 bit)
- Windows 10 (64 bit)
- Windows 11 (64 bit)
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 (64 bit)
Note
- This installation 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. For information about your processor, see Product Specifications.
- Although this release works with Ubuntu 20.04 for discrete graphic cards, Ubuntu 20.04 is not the preferred operating range for discrete graphics drivers, so OpenVINO support is limited.
- Recommended versions for OpenCL™ Drivers:
- 22.43 for Ubuntu 22.04
- 22.41 for Ubuntu 20.04
- 22.28 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8
Intel® Gaussian & Neural Accelerator (Intel® GNA)
Supported Hardware
- Intel® GNA
Compatible Operating Systems
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (64 bit)
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (64 bit)
- Windows 10 (64 bit)
- Windows 11 (64 bit)
Additional Software Requirements
A Linux environment needs these components:
- GNU Compiler Collection (GCC)* 8.4 for Ubuntu 20, 8.4 for RHEL* 8, 9.3 for Ubuntu 20
- CMake* 3.10 or higher
- Python* 3.7-3.10
- OpenCV 4.5
A Windows environment needs these components:
- Microsoft Visual Studio* 2019
- CMake 3.14 or higher (64 bit)
- Python 3.7-3.11
- OpenCV 4.5
- Intel® HD Graphics Driver (Required only for GPUs.)
A macOS environment needs these components:
- CMake 3.13 or higher
- Xcode* 10.3
- OpenCV 4.5
- Python 3.7-3.11
Deep learning framework versions:
- TensorFlow* 1.15, 2.2
- Apache MxNet* 1.9.0
- ONNX* (Open Neural Network Exchange) 1.13.0
- PaddlePaddle* 2.4
Notes This release of OpenVINO toolkit can be installed on other versions of deep learning frameworks, but only the specified versions above are fully validated. For a list of all the components used in validation, see the release notes.
Python binaries for OpenVINO and binaries on Windows, CentOS* 7, macOS (x86) are built with Intel® oneAPI Threading Building Blocks (oneTBB) libraries. Other binaries on Ubuntu and RedHat operating systems are built with legacy Threading Building Blocks (TBB), which is released by operating system distribution. OpenVINO supports being built with oneTBB or legacy TBB by a user on the operating systems noted earlier. System compatibility and performance were improved on hybrid CPUs, like 12th generation Intel Core processers and newer.
