Line 1: ~~{{Convert}}~~ Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology ([http://www.intel.com/technology/64bitextensions/ Intel EM64T]) enables 64-bit computing on the server/workstation and desktop platforms when combined with supporting software. Intel EM64T improves performance by allowing the system to address more than 4 GB of both virtual and physical memory. Technically speaking, EM64T offers to Intel processors what [[x86-64]] offers to AMD processors. Ancient disagreements such as 3Dnow-vs-~~SSE~~MMX still holds, but the rest should be exactly the same. It is supported by latest XEON processors. Intel EM64T provides support for: Line 15 ⟶ 13: Currently physical addresses are restricted to 40 bits, and linear addresses are restricted to 48 bits, sign-extended. == See Also == === Articles === * [[~~x86~~X86-64]] * [[Creating a 64-bit kernel]] ===External Links===▼ * [[User:Stephanvanschaik/Setting_Up_Long_Mode\|Setting up long mode]] * [http://www.intel.com/technology/64bitextensions/faq.htm intel's faq] ▲=== External Links === * [[Wikipedia:EM64T\|EM64T]] on Wikipedia.▼ * [ftp://download.intel.com/design/Pentium4/manuals/25366816.pdf XEON manual] ▲* [[Wikipedia:EM64T]] [[Category:X86 CPU]] [[Category:X86-64]]
