1. Open a terminal
2. Run the following command:
```
lscpu | grep "Model name:"
```bash
grep -q -i avx2 /proc/cpuinfo && echo true
```
The terminal outputs your CPU model. For example:
```
Model name: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1135G7 @ 2.40GHz
```
3. Check the model name in either the [Intel](https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark.html) or [AMD](https://www.amd.com/en/products/specifications/processors.html) websites.
The terminal outputs whether your CPU is supported (`true`) or not.
### Windows
