# Install Fuchsia on a device

The Fuchsia platform can be installed on the following hardware devices:

- [Intel NUC (Next Unit of Computing) devices](https://fuchsia.dev/docs/development/hardware/intel_nuc)
- [Khadas VIM3 board](https://fuchsia.dev/docs/development/hardware/khadas-vim3)

## Architecture support

Fuchsia supports two ISAs (Instruction Set Architectures):

- `arm64` - Fuchsia supports `arm64` (also called AArch64) with no restrictions on
  supported microarchitectures.

- `x86-64` - Fuchsia supports `x86-64` (also called IA32e or AMD64), but with some
  restrictions on supported microarchitectures.

## CPU support

Fuchsia's support for CPUs:

- Intel - For Intel CPUs, only Broadwell and later are actively supported and will
  have new features added for them. Additionally, we will accept patches to keep
  Nehalem and later booting.

- AMD - AMD CPUs are **not** actively supported (in particular, we have no active testing
  on them), but we will accept patches to ensure correct booting on them.
