Nima Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 x86 is instruction set architecture based on Intel 8086 CPU, to make long story short, it means 32-bit. x86-64 is an extension of the x86 instruction set, it supports 64-bit registers, to make long story short, it means 64-bit. You may see AMD64 or EM64T, they are also the same as x86-64. We have no such "x32" or "x64". ;) Hope you understood. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudrax Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 These are system architecture..x86 and x32 are the same but x64 is different..also known as 32 bit and 64 bit architecture..an application designed for 32 bit platform may run on 64 bit platform but a 64 bit app can never run in 32 bit platform..64 bit processing is faster than 32 bit processing.This is basic idea..someone more knowledgeable will tell you more.. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
