Not all customers or software applications will necessarily benefit from use of this technology. 64-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. 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. See www.intel.com/info/em64t for more information. iv Intel’s numbering is not a measurement of higher performance. v Dual Channel is only supported when the system is configured with DDR2 symmetric memory (i.e. 2x256). vi For 4GB memory, up to 1 GB may not be available with 32-bit operating systems due to system resource requirements. vii Double Layer discs can store more data than single layer discs.
