# Install Fuchsia on a device
The Fuchsia platform can be installed on the following hardware devices:
- [Intel NUC (Next Unit of Computing) devices][install-fuchsia-on-nuc]
- [Khadas VIM3 board][install-fuchsia-on-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.
