how can i know whether my processor is a 32 bit or 64 bit processor?

Question

know that i got an intel pentium 4 of 3.00 GHz and thats all.
I thought i could get it through hardware prorerties but no way...

Unfortunately we would need to know a little more information to know which exact model you have. Two of the Pentium 4 - 3.0 GHz processors are 64 bit capable while one is not. Can you tell if you have the 2 MB L2 Cache or the 1 MB L2 Cache? If you have the 2 MB L2 Cache, you should have the 64 bit version, otherwise the 1 MB L2 Cache is the 32 bit version.

Answer 2

The lowest intel pentium 4 that runs on 64 bit has hyperthreading and all of that stuff and runs at 3.00 GHZ. Since yours is running at 3.00 GHZ it could be either 32 bit o 64 bit. Look at your cache because if you have a L1 cache then there is no way you are running at 64 bit.

Answer 3

It's Intel 64 but LOL Windows Xp and Vista aren't 64 bit and can't take advantage of that lol. Except for Vista 64 bit...

Answer 4

start->run
type in msinfo32
in the system summary look for the processor
x86 is 32 bit, x86-64 or x64 is 64 bit

Answer 5

some p4 3ghz are 32bit and 64bit. The best way to determine it is to download cpuid link here http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php then check the list of Pentium 4 types at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Pentium_4_microprocessors to determine your P4 model if it's 32 or 64bit

Answer 6

You have to take it out and you'll see it written on top dude

Answer 7

try CPU-Z in cpuid.com
it displays all info you need for your PC
