can I use openvino on AMD cpu?

[Thaiyou]

Hi, I just install openvino on my ubunutu machine with CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3950X 16-Core Processor. It sucessfuly installed and ran the benchmark properply.Seems the openvino also can use the MKLDNN plugin.   I am just curious about:

1. why openvino can run on AMD cpu and use MKLDNN. is there anything will limit the performance compare to inter cpu.

2. openvino also can find GNA plugin and run the supported layers. To my understanding, the GNA plugin is only for intel cpu. why it can be used on amd cpu and is there anything will limit the performance compare to intel cpu.

thanks in advance if you could provide some informance.

Hi Thaiyou,

As for now, Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ is officially supported by Intel Platform only which you may refer to this System Requirements.

Regarding GNA plugin, you can have a look at this documentation.

Other than Intel Platform, we are sorry that we are unable to comment about them.
