It is about SSSE3 not SSE3 support.
Only the following CPU are capable (SSSE3 + 64-Bit extensions):

  • Lion Vanilla-Kernel compatible Intel
  • AMD Bulldozer
  • AMD Bobcat (mobile APUs / embedded CPUs, most likely graphics won't work)
  • VIA Nano (atm not supported in the Kernel, but AnV has written methods for these, that could be added. I haven't considered this necessary - Lion on such feeble CPU would be no fun.)

AMD FX 4100
MSI 760GM-P23
Radeon HD6570
OS X Lion Retail 10.7.5
Lion Kernel Project
