Please help on my doubts if CPU and NVIDIA GPU are supported by 16.0

Hi, I’m starting to think to pass to leap 16.0 with my 4 laptops and a desktop,
I’m starting with the oldest and less used one:

laptop 1=ASUS vivobook pro N552VW-FY204T (2016) used to see movies on tv and something with wine.

I have doubts if the CPU and GPU are supported.
reading in the forum the way to know the CPU is this

eros@localhost:~> /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --help | grep -i x86-64
Usage: /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 [OPTION]... EXECUTABLE-FILE [ARGS-FOR-PROGRAM...]
This program interpreter self-identifies as: /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
  x86-64-v4
  x86-64-v3 (supported, searched)
  x86-64-v2 (supported, searched)

what is the v? of my CPU? v4? v3? or v2?

it seems it is not supported, am I right??

Writing this from a quite similar N551 (2015).
Your CPU is x86-64-v3 (supported, searched)
Your GTX960M is currently supported by the Nvidia 580.126.09 driver.
