It is compatible with processors that support Advanced Vector Extensions 2 (AVX2) instructions, which are mostly found in processors released after 2016. Low: This setting will cancel persistent sounds, such as those produced by fans, air conditioners, or computer fans. Music can be played during meetings and phone calls.

If you’re using a high-quality microphone, disable Noise Suppression or set it to Low.
