Windows 10: x64 based processor

Hello!

It says my processor is x64 bit based , but I'm running x32 bit Windows 10. It's a dual core,so if I'm running x32 only a core will work,or what?

If the Future 32-bit Version of Windows Support 64-bit Applications...

If the tablet is marketed with a true x64-based processor, then x64-bit Windows will be installed. If it's not, the processor in your system is not a true x64-based processor. It may be ARM.

I will also say again that in order to run x64-bit based programs, both the operating system and the hardware must be x64-bit ready. It is not possible to have a "container" like as WoW64 for x32-based systems. It simply would not work. There is a reason
why x64-based systems produced the overhead they do. The apps are compiled and written for x64-based systems, not x32. You cannot create libraries and APIs for x64-based software to run on x32-based hardware. It simply would not work.

Finally, you will never find a true x64-bit processor inside a system that does not support more than 1-2 GB of RAM. It would be impractical. In those systems, such as the iPhone, the processor is not a true x64 based processor; rather an
ARM version.

it's 64-bit operating system,x64-based processor

 

All it means is that your processor is capable of handling 64-bit. On a 32 bit install both cores will work fine. Obviously, by running 32 bit Windows you are missing out on some of the inherent efficiencies of a 64-bit set up. In short don't worry.

 

Thank you very much ! *Biggrin
