64 bit or x64
http://www.intel.com/products/processor_number/chart/core2duo.htm
i believe you are referring to E4300
all and all 'core 2 duo' family of processors are 64 bit
# have no clue what the fella above me is blabbering, and calling others retarded at that
also, all the random thumbs down dished out make no sense
EDIT:
no, i am not going to dish you a thumbs down 'silence' , just have the balls to answer me, that will show your true colors
read the question again:
mentions about processor alone
you don't need to add extra coloring to that
ENOUGH OF YOUR CRAP !
i wont even bother to comment or correct you about the centrino and all the other crap you have posted.

The Core 2 Duo is a 64 bit processor (though you need a 64 bit OS to actually use it in 64 bit mode and most people are still running 32 bit software (usually for good reason since 64 bit windows just isn't any good)).
As for the retarded idiot who thinks that the Core 2 Duo in my laptop can't run 64 bit Linux despite it doing just that right now, why would Intel think that 64 bit computing which is necessary to access more than 4 GiB of RAM in a decent manner (PAE is just crap in comparison) which will be coming with even low end computers by the end of next year is useless?

There is one way to say: in a theoretical case with no regard to what motherboard actually supporting/with the best motherboard you can buy, can you use more than 4 GB in total RAM? Yes means 64 no means 32.
Silence should be silenced himself if he doesn't even know what he's talking about. Intel dabbed little bit about 64-bit technology ever since with original Pentium even though it wasn't core instructions there.

l have a duo.core prosessor. But what l have heard, the 32 bit, can be upgrade to a 64 bit. So now you have a 32. If you want to upgrade it then you need to buy the software to do that. As far as 64 bit not being as good as 32 bit, guys, l am lost on that. But l knew what you want to know.And l answered you.

The CPU itself is 64 bit. It can be run as 32 or 64 bit depending on application, and supporting hardware (mainboard/chipset.)

Sounds like a dual processor to me (64 bit).

WOW these people are retarded, core 2 duo and centrino duo are both 32 BIT NOT 64BIT, but not that is matters, intel learned how useless 64 bit computing right now would be and cut their R&D on it, if you have a 64 bit processor then chances are you have a pre-installed OS that doesn't support it anyway so nothing to worry about.

I'm pretty sure all c2d cpu's are 64bit, if you give me the exact model for e.g. (E6600) I will be able to give you a 100% answer.
Thanks.
