Which processor specific variant should I use?

[Banny706]

I have a new computer that has an Intel Core 2 Duo for a processor. Do I use the x86 version or the 64bit version? Looking forward to Hardy tomorrow.

Thanks for answering the question, it really helped.

I looked through the forums and could not find my answer. Don't assume anything until you ask.

You can use either, it's up too you. Some people recomend 64bit, others 32.

Thank you very much guys.

I used 32 for awhile with Edgy, then I switched to 64bit. I haven't noticed any problems (a little work was needed with flash) so I'm going 64 again tomorrow.

I installed 64/hardy this morning, flash install was painless and works like a charm.
