 ## Requirements
 
 - We support platforms like Linux or macOS, as well as Windows through Visual Studio 2017 or better.
 - A processor with AVX2 (i.e., Intel processors starting with the Haswell microarchitecture released 2013, and processors from AMD starting with the Rizen)
-- A recent C++ compiler (e.g., GNU GCC or LLVM CLANG or Visual Studio 2017), we assume C++17
+- A recent C++ compiler (e.g., GNU GCC or LLVM CLANG or Visual Studio 2017), we assume C++17. GNU GCC 7 or better or LLVM's clang 6 or better.
 - Some benchmark scripts assume bash and other common utilities, but they are  optional.

+
+```
+brew install gcc@8

+
+Optional: You  need to tell cmake which compiler you wish to use by setting the CC and CXX variables. Under bash, you can do so with commands such as ``export CC=gcc-7`` and ``export CXX=g++-7``.
