I was reading somewhere when vista is released and you have a 64 bit cpu , you will have to use the 64 bit version of vista.

This is what iv started thinking about, question I cannot find the answer to:

'Is conroe a 'true' 64bit cpu like Amd64 ?'

or is it just a 32bit cpu with 64bit instruction sets 'bolted on' like it was in the p4 ?. The 'bolting on' of instruction sets is what made P4 so slow in 64bit, while AMD64 was designed for it from the ground up, with conroe being slower in 64bit that 32bit, i fear it will be a 'bolted on' kind of approach if this thread is making any sense :D


it worrys me 2
