    Default 64-bit

    Sorry if this is silly.

    Does it make any sense to have a 64 bit system with this game?
    I mean, most people will probably have a 64 CPU, but not the right windows and drivers,
    so It runs on 32 bit.

    If I would have win x64 and 64 bit drivers, does the game support 64bit?

    My understanding of its specs is that you must have 64 bit..

    Hm?
    Don't understand this, couldn't somebody explain?

    Is there a possibility the game supports 64 bit like Far Cry?

    Im sure it does support 64-bit windows. 64-bit windows have been out long enough already for developers to support it in there games. Some games still run on Windows 2000 and its pretty old, so I see no reason why 64-bit windows wouldnt be supported.

    In order for a 64-bit processor to be used to its full, you would need 64 bit windows. But if you have windows XP, then your CPU is only running in 32-bit.

    I'm pretty sure WindowsXP x64 edition knows how to handle a 32-bit program. Don't take my word for it though. I know for a fact that Windows Vista will have backwards compatibility for 32-bit programs. Whether or not your x32 programs will actually work is another story.

    Core 2 duo is a second gen 64 bit from Intel I think.

    And its blazingly fast. I like the look of the 6400 or 6600.

    but even the 6300, dispite low clock speeds, should handle M2tW well.
