CPU not supported? Yes, I said CPU, not GPU

I see a bunch of threads and posts addressing GPU problems, but I haven't been able to find any explanation for a CPU not being compatable. 

 

I just downloaded Snap Camera, and I get this error every single time I open it. I know my computer is a little on the old side, but I've been looking around, and as far as I can tell, my Processor SHOULD still be good enough/meets the requirements. 

I have:  AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1055T Processor 2.80 GHz

I have tried to proceed anyway, and use it 'at my own risk'  and indeed, I don't seem to be able to use it. I click on just about any filter, and there's a 50/50 chance it either crashes, or the entire filter is grainy, and the video quality is absolute garbage. 

 

As for the webcam itself, it's a Razer Kiyo. 

Could someone please advise me on how to fix this?

    Might be because Snap Camera has received lots of updates that made it heavily resourced and your CPU it's literally right at the edge of the minimum requirement to be able to use Snap Camera I don't think this is an issue you can fix.

    I think all you have to do is upgrading and top rated your CPU. It will solve your all queries because it look like that your CPU is not meeting the requirements which are needed to use snap camera. Thanks.
