φ64-bit computing on Intel architecture requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers and applications enabled for Intel® 64 architecture (formerly known as Intel® Extended Memory 64 Technology, or Intel® EM64T). Processors will not operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel 64 architecture-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and software configurations. Consult with your system vendor for more information. See www.intel.com/technology/architecture-silicon/intel64/index.htm for more information or consult with your system vendor.
1 Hyper-Threading Technology requires a computer system with an Intel® Pentium® 4 processor supporting Hyper-Threading Technology and a Hyper-Threading Technology enabled chipset, BIOS and operating system. Performance will vary depending on the specific hardware and software you use. See http://www.intel.com/products/ht/hyperthreading_more.htm for more information including details on which processors support Hyper-Threading Technology.
