AVX support in intel cpu

[N1KXX]

Does Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU 550 @ 3.20GHz 3.20 GHz support AVX?

[n_scott_pearson]

No, it does not. AVX was introduced in the 2nd generation Core processors, but the Core i3-550 is a 1st generation Core processor.

Sorry,

Hello N1KXX,

Thank you for posting on the Intel communities. I see you want to know if your Intel® Core™ i3-550 Processor supports AVX.

Due to this product being discontinued, Intel Customer Service no longer supports inquiries for it, but perhaps fellow community members have the knowledge to jump in and help. You may also find the Discontinued Products website helpful to address your request. Thank you for understanding.

Regards,
