## Validated Models

The following models have been validated for functionality on Intel® Core™ Ultra Series 1 and Series 2:

- [Llama-3.2-1B-Instruct-GGUF](https://huggingface.co/unsloth/Llama-3.2-1B-Instruct-GGUF/)
- [Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/bartowski/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-GGUF)

The following models were validated on Intel® Core™ Ultra Series 2. While our testing was limited, the OpenVINO backend is expected to work across a broad range of [Intel hardware](https://docs.openvino.ai/2026/about-openvino/release-notes-openvino/system-requirements.html).
- Use `GGML_OPENVINO_STATEFUL_EXECUTION=1` when using GPU device.
- `-fa 1` is required when running llama-bench with the OpenVINO backend.
- Additional model support, quantization formats and validations are work in progress.
